  Rotowire Apr 2, 2025

  The Jazz announced Wednesday that Williams tested positive for mononucleosis, ruling him out for the remainder of the season, Ben Anderson of KSL News Salt Lake City reports. Williams will be re-evaluated in three weeks, at which time he'll likely be available to begin his offseason conditioning. Williams had a rough rookie season in Utah, making 50 total appearances with averages of 4.6 points, 2.3 rebounds, 1.2 assists and 0.7 three-pointers on 32.3 percent shooting from the field.

• Jazz's Cody Williams: Dealing with illness

  Rotowire Mar 31, 2025

  Williams is questionable for Monday's game against the Hornets due to illness. The Jazz are already very shorthanded for Monday, so this isn't ideal for the team. In terms of fantasy, Williams hasn't been very effective despite starting nine straight games, averaging 4.0 points, 1.7 rebounds and 0.9 assists on 25 percent shooting during that stretch.

• Jazz's Cody Williams: Shows promise in loss

  Rotowire Feb 25, 2025

  Williams posted eight points (4-9 FG, 0-1 3Pt), eight rebounds, five assists and one steal in 27 minutes during Monday's 114-112 loss to the Trail Blazers. The Jazz were without five key players Monday with various day-to-day injuries, allowing Williams to get some much-needed reps. With Utah likely to prioritize player development going forward, Williams will be a name to monitor in deeper formats. He's had a tough season overall, however, shooting 32.2 percent from the field and 23.6 percent from beyond the arc.

• Jazz's Cody Williams: Could return Saturday

  Rotowire Feb 8, 2025

  Williams (ankle) is listed as questionable for Saturday's game against the Clippers. A left ankle sprain has prevented Williams from playing since Jan. 20. He would stand to see plenty of opportunities if cleared to play Saturday due to the absences of John Collins (rest), Lauri Markkanen (back) and Walker Kessler (shoulder). Williams averaged 4.9 points, 1.9 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 0.9 steals over 25.6 minutes per game in his seven outings prior to his ankle injury.

  Rotowire Dec 23, 2024

  Williams (coach's decision) didn't appear in Monday's 124-113 loss to the Cavaliers.

The No. 10 overall pick of the 2024 NBA Draft has endured a rough start to his NBA career, having not seen action for the Jazz since Nov. 23 while averaging 3.1 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.2 assists in 18.7 minutes over 16 appearances and shooting just 26.9 percent from the field.

• Jazz's Cody Williams: Unflattering performance

  Rotowire Nov 13, 2024

  Williams accumulated zero points (0-2 FG), two assists and one steal across 15 minutes during Tuesday's 120-112 loss to Phoenix. Despite continuing to start for the Jazz, Williams has been unable to deliver anything close to meaningful production. Having now started seven straight games following a season-ending injury to Taylor Hendricks, Williams has scored double-digit points just once. With very little to add in terms of peripheral numbers, Williams' short-term outlook is far from rosy.

• Jazz's Cody Williams: Minimal output in starting role

  Rotowire Oct 30, 2024

  Williams produced nine points (3-7 FG, 3-6 3Pt), two assists and two steals in 30 minutes during Tuesday's 113-96 loss to Sacramento. Williams moved to the starting lineup following the leg injury sustained by Taylor Hendricks on Monday, but the rookie had a rough time in the first start of his NBA career. Williams should eventually improve as the season progresses, and he could see even more usage in the short term if Lauri Markkanen (back) misses time.

  Rotowire Oct 15, 2024

  Williams isn't in the starting five for Tuesday's preseason game versus the Kings, Tony Jones of The Athletic reports.

  Rotowire Oct 2, 2024

  Williams (illness) will be a full participant in training camp, Andy Larsen of The Salt Lake Tribune reports. Williams missed Utah's Summer League finale with an illness, but his status for camp wasn't in doubt.
