Aside from falling from the rotation, Williams told reporters that he also has a partially torn ligament in his right thumb. He may be kept out of the rotation until his thumb fully heals.
According to Chris Haynes, Williams’ thumb will take around six weeks to fully heal, and that could be a reason why he hasn’t seen any playing time of late.
