Suns' Mark Williams: Tagged questionable for Friday
Williams is questionable for Friday's Play-In Tournament game against the Warriors due to left foot soreness.
It's unclear if this is a new injury for Williams, who was held out of the regular-season finale due to foot injury maintenance and was then cleared to play in Tuesday's game against the Trail Blazers. The Suns should have another update on the big man's status closer to tipoff. Oso Ighodaro would draw the start at center if Williams can't go.

Suns' Mark Williams: Blocks three shots in loss
Williams logged four points (2-3 FG), four rebounds, two assists and three blocks across 22 minutes during Tuesday's 114-110 Play-In Tournament loss to Portland.
Williams recorded a game-high three blocks, although that's really where the positives end. Despite being healthy, Williams continues to play limited minutes. In his past two games, he has averaged just 5.5 points, 4.5 rebounds and 2.0 blocks in 21.0 minutes per game. Tuesday's loss will see Phoenix face off against either the Clippers or the Warriors, with the winner going on to play the Thunder in the first round of the playoffs.

Williams (foot) has been cleared to play in Tuesday's Play-In Game against Portland.
Williams received a night off Sunday against the Thunder in the Suns' final game of the regular season, but he's been given the green light to suit up Tuesday. He's appeared in four games since returning from a stress reaction in his left foot and averaged 13.0 points, 6.3 rebounds, 1.0 steals and 1.3 blocks over this brief stretch.

Suns' Mark Williams: Won't play against Thunder
Williams (foot) is out for Sunday's game against the Thunder, Amanda Pflugrad of 3TV Phoenix reports.
Williams will get the night off before likely returning for the Play-In Tournament. Without him, Oso Ighodaro could be back in the starting lineup for the first time since the 127-107 loss to Charlotte on April 2.

Suns' Mark Williams: Questionable for Sunday
Williams (foot) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Thunder.
Williams may sit out Sunday's regular-season finale for maintenance purposes. If the big man is ultimately ruled out, Oso Ighodaro and Khaman Maluach would be candidates for expanded roles.

Suns' Mark Williams: Available for Friday
Williams (rest) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Friday's game against the Lakers.
Williams got the night off Wednesday against Dallas, which provided Khaman Maluach an opportunity to start at center. However, Williams should step right back into the starting job Friday night after being omitted from the Suns' injury report.

Suns' Mark Williams: Sitting out Wednesday
Williams (rest) is out for Wednesday's game against the Mavericks.

Suns' Mark Williams: Logs 19 points in loss
Williams produced 19 points (7-9 FG, 5-6 FT), eight rebounds and three steals across 28 minutes during Tuesday's 119-105 loss to the Rockets.
Williams had a positive result in the defeat. He's averaged a solid 15.0 points, 6.7 rebounds, 1.3 blocks and 1.3 steals since returning from a 15-game absence. The Suns went 8-7 without their starting center, and their chances of playing better than break-even ball increase with a healthy big man under the basket.

Suns' Mark Williams: Back in starting lineup
Williams will start Sunday's game against the Bulls, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Making his first appearance since March 3, Williams came off the bench Thursday and posted 12 points (6-7 FG), four rebounds, three blocks, one assist and one steal across 20 minutes during the Suns' 127-107 loss to the Hornets. However, he'll take his starting spot back from Oso Ighodaro on Sunday and should see increased minutes. As a starter this season (52 games), Williams has averaged 11.6 points, 8.0 rebounds and 1.8 stocks in 23.9 minutes a night.

Suns' Mark Williams: Swats three shots in return
Williams (foot) recorded 12 points (6-7 FG), four rebounds, three blocks, one assist and one steal across 20 minutes Thursday in the Suns' 127-107 loss to the Hornets.
Cleared to play for the first time since March 3 after a month-long absence due to a stress reaction in his left foot, Williams was deployed off the bench but came through with a serviceable line while backing up Oso Ighodaro. Though Ighodaro received 25 minutes, the playing-time split between the two centers could eventually tilt back into Williams' favor once he gets fully ramped back up.

Suns' Mark Williams: Trending in right direction
Williams (foot) remains listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Hornets, but he's trending in the right direction and is expected to be cleared to play following pregame warmups Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Williams appears set to return from a 15-game absence due to a stress reaction in the third metatarsal of his left foot. Given the length of his absence, Williams will likely be operating with a minutes restriction and could come off the bench if he plays.

Suns' Mark Williams: Won't start in return
Williams (foot) will come off the bench in Thursday's game against Charlotte.
Williams hasn't played in nearly a month, so he'll come off the bench in this contest. As a result, Oso Ighodaro will remain in the starting lineup, although it's unknown if this arrangement will continue Sunday in Chicago.

Suns' Mark Williams: Good to go Thursday
Williams (foot) has been cleared to play Thursday against Charlotte, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Williams appeared to be trending in the right direction leading up to tipoff, and the team has since officially declared him available for Thursday's clash, which will mark the big man's first action since March 3. The Duke product has missed nearly a month while recovering from a stress reaction in his left foot, so it's not clear if he'll immediately return to the starting five or if Phoenix will elect to ease him back into live action.

Suns' Mark Williams: Could return Thursday
Williams (foot) is listed as questionable for Thursday's game against the Hornets, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
Williams has been progressing in his recovery from a stress reaction in the third metatarsal of his left foot. It's an injury that has prevented him from playing since March 3, but he was recently cleared for 5-on-5 at practice, and the fact that he's earned the questionable tag for Thursday's game -- rather than being ruled out immediately -- is a good sign for the fourth-year center. Should Williams return, Oso Ighodaro would likely see his role decrease in the Suns' rotation, though the former will likely operate under a minutes restriction once he's cleared to play.

Suns' Mark Williams: Sitting out again
Williams (foot) is out for Tuesday's game against the Magic.
Williams hasn't played since March 3 due to a stress reaction in the third metatarsal of his left foot, though he was recently cleared for 5-on-5 at practice. His next chance to play comes Thursday against Charlotte. Until Williams is cleared to play, Oso Ighodaro should continue to start at center.

Suns' Mark Williams: Remains out for Monday
Williams (foot) remains out for Monday's game against Memphis.
Williams hasn't played in nearly a month, and although his recent participation in 5-on-5 drills suggests he might be nearing a return, he won't be in the lineup versus Memphis. With the 24-year-old out again, Oso Ighodaro will presumably remain in the starting lineup.

Suns' Mark Williams: Progresses to 5-on-5
Williams (foot) participated in 5-on-5 drills at practice Saturday, Duane Rankin of The Arizona Republic reports.
It's a huge step in Williams' recovery from a stress reaction in the third metatarsal of his left foot, and it's safe to assume his return is on the horizon. The center has already been ruled out for Saturday's matchup with the Jazz, so his next chance to play will come Monday against Memphis.

Suns' Mark Williams: Remains out for Saturday
Williams (foot) has been ruled out for Saturday's game against the Jazz.
Williams will miss a 13th straight game due to a stress reaction in the third metatarsal of his left foot. The big man has yet to advance to 5-on-5 work, so he can be considered doubtful for Monday's game against the Grizzlies until Phoenix offers an update on his progress.

Suns' Mark Williams: Limited to individual work
Williams (foot) has yet to advance past individual work, Hayden Cilley of ClutchPoints.com reports.
Williams hasn't played since March 3 due to a stress reaction in the third metatarsal of his left foot, and he'll need to participate in 5-on-5 work before being cleared to return. The big man can be considered doubtful for Saturday's game against the Jazz until the Suns offer an update on his progress. Oso Ighodaro will likely continue to start for as long as Williams is sidelined.
