  • Trail Blazers' Robert Williams: Progressing toward return

    Coach Chauncey Billups said Sunday that Williams (hamstring), who is out for Sunday's game against the Pelicans, is "getting back out on the court," though Billups specified he is not certain when Williams will return, Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com reports.

    Williams has yet to play during the 2024-25 campaign due to a left hamstring strain. However, Billups made it clear he is not sure when the big man will return, and the team is likely working him back to playing form slowly. Williams' next chance to suit up will come on the second day of a back-to-back set Monday versus the Kings.

  • Trail Blazers' Robert Williams: Not playing Sunday

    Williams (hamstring) is out for Sunday's game against the Pelicans.

    Williams continues to deal with a hamstring injury and is set to miss a third straight game. His next chance to play will come against the Kings on Monday, but with that being the second half of a back-to-back set, he could miss that contest too.

  • Trail Blazers' Robert Williams: Officially out Wednesday

    Williams (hamstring) has been ruled out for Wednesday's regular-season opener against the Warriors.

    The big man will begin the season on the sidelines, though the club is hopeful he will return to game action soon, according to Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com. If the 27-year-old misses additional time, Donovan Clingan and Duop Reath are candidates for more playing time. Williams' next chance to suit up will come Friday against New Orleans.

  • Trail Blazers' Robert Williams: Active at shootaround Friday

    Williams (hamstring) was a limited participant during Friday's practice, Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com reports.

    Williams is dealing with a grade 1 left hamstring strain that he sustained during training camp and will be reevaluated before the start of the regular season. The 26-year-old and the club are aiming for a return to game action by Opening Night, and Williams' ability to run during practice bodes well for his status. However, even when healthy, Williams' playing time will likely be monitored given his injury-plagued past.

  • Trail Blazers' Robert Williams: Out at least two weeks

    The Trail Blazers announced Friday that Williams experienced a grade 1 left hamstring strain during training camp and he is expected to miss two weeks.

    After an injury-plagued 2023-24 campaign that saw Williams make just six appearances, he is already off to a rough start in 204-25. While Williams could return in time for Portland's regular-season opener against Golden State on Oct. 23, hamstring injuries can often linger.

  • Trail Blazers' Robert Williams: Cleared for training camp

    Portland general manager Joe Cronin said Monday that Williams (knee) has been cleared for training camp this week, Sean Highkin of RoseGardenReport.com reports.

    Cronin did caution that the team will hold Williams out of some preseason activities, but he anticipates that the center will be ready for the season. Williams is coming off knee surgery and is likely to have some restrictions early on, but he'll have stiff competition for playing time with Deandre Ayton and Donovan Clingan at the center spot.

  • Trail Blazers' Robert Williams: Receiving interest from Sacramento

    The Kings have expressed interest in Williams (knee), Brett Siegel of Clutch Points reports.

    The Trail Blazers drafted Deandre Ayton's backup in Donovan Clingan this summer, so Williams no longer makes a ton of sense on the Portland roster. He will need to show he's healthy before another team will be willing to take the plunge on the oft-injured big man, but getting out of Portland could be good for his fantasy outlook. The Pelicans have also been rumored to be interested in acquiring the Time Lord, and that would be an excellent landing spot for him in terms of fantasy hoops, but to be clear, nothing is imminent on the Williams trade front.
