Feel like we've had this issue before too.

probably that one season Steph rolled his like 800 times and everybody else on that team was also hurt and they tanked and got Harrison Barnes

Love Williams fundamentals and touch on his shots. I wonder where the defense was in this game? Knicks minor team was 1-7 coming into it, and maintained a lead around 20 points about all night,

Mark will be a good NBA player. Could be more, but hard to tell when Clifford the dog gives him no minutes.

Looks like zero urgency in that game

Hard to tell much from him scoring vs zero defense. But If he can consistent make 15 footers, they opens up so much in pnr.

This is what player development looks like, Swarm are clearly working on getting him paint touches, pick and roll touches and letting him explore his midrange shot. If he were playing in Charlotte right now he would be getting 2-3 shots per game playing 10-15 mpg on a losing team. I would rather him get comfortable being more of an offensive threat and that way once we do call him up he isn't just a dunk only guy like Plumlee and Nick.

Only played 19 minutes tonight with the Swarm. Did he get hurt?

Was wondering the same. I can't find anything. Definitely wasn't foul trouble.

Minutes restriction perhaps...? Is he fully healed from the ankle injury? Wouldn't put it past the organization to force Mark to grind out Swarm games at less than 100% :lol:

Not sure why they haven't announced anything, but Mark sat out the Swarm game today so seems like there is an injury thing going on.

Probably doing every possible test under the sun to make sure they get the correct verbiage for the reason he's out

Post #212 » by **yosemiteben** » Wed Dec 7, 2022 2:15 am

Not playing tonight (doesn't show up on the box score at all) but also not on the injury report.

Did he get called up?

He's at the duke game so I'm not sure.

So he's not dressed out for the Hornets tonight. Our 1st round pick is just mysteriously missing from our roster and our G league roster with no explanation.

Wtf

Yeah I have no idea. He was hanging out with Trevor Keels at MSG where Duke played. I'm assuming he's with the team at Barclays tonight?

Really sucks we have to constantly guess what is going on with this team.

Well looky there, Mark Williams on the injury report

Why is everything on the left side?

Feels like 3 has something to do with this.

Because this team is the proverbial “two left feet” squad. Can never catch a break except for broken body parts.

Yep. Really impressive how unlucky they've been. Brutal. Tank I guess...?
