Williams ended Monday's 122-113 loss to the Cavaliers with 26 points (11-22 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), six rebounds, four assists and two steals over 37 minutes.
Williams scored at least 24 points for the third time in his past four games, continuing to play a sizeable role for a team that certainly has both eyes on the future. However, despite his recent scoring splurge, Williams' overall fantasy value remains somewhat underwhelming. During that four-game span, he has been outside the top 200 in standard formats, averaging 18.5 points in 33.3 minutes per contest.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Another 24-point effort in loss
Rotowire
Williams amassed 24 points (9-14 FG, 6-7 FT), seven assists and two steals in 30 minutes during Friday's 135-129 loss to the Nuggets.
Williams has posted 24 points in back-to-back games for the Jazz, but Utah suffered losses in both contests. Still, the uptick in performances from the second-year forward out of Colorado is worth highlighting. He has scored in double digits in all but one of his last 11 games, averaging 17.6 points per game in that stretch, but things have been even better in recent weeks. Williams has scored at least 23 points in four of his last six games, and he seems to be growing in confidence with each passing game. This is clearly a promising end of the season for the former first-round pick, who could be a worthy addition for the fantasy playoffs if he's still available on the wire.
Williams notched 24 points (11-20 FG, 0-3 3Pt, 2-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist, one block and two steals across 37 minutes during Wednesday's 133-110 loss to the Wizards.
Williams returned after a one-game absence due to a minor shoulder concern, scoring at least 20 points for the third time in his past five appearances. Silly season has been a real highlight for Williams, allowing him to play a sizeable role for a team with no reason to limit him down the stretch. In six games over the past two weeks, he has delivered healthy numbers, averaging 20.3 points, 4.3 rebounds, 3.5 assists and 1.0 steals in 33.2 minutes per contest.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Iffy for Wednesday
Rotowire
Williams (shoulder) is listed as questionable for Wednesday's game against the Wizards.
Williams could miss a second straight game due to right shoulder soreness. If the second-year swingman joins Brice Sensabaugh (rest) on the sidelines, Bez Mbeng, John Konchar and Kennedy Chandler would be candidates to see increased playing time.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Iffy for Monday
Rotowire
Williams is listed questionable for Monday's game against the Raptors due to right shoulder soreness.
The Jazz will likely wait and see how the second-year forward is feeling in the afternoon before deciding on his status ahead of the 9 p.m. ET tipoff. If Williams is unable to give it a go, the Jazz could lean more heavily on Brice Sensabaugh, Kennedy Chandler and Bez Mbeng to handle more minutes out of the backcourt.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Downgraded to doubtful
Rotowire
Williams (shoulder) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Raptors.
Right shoulder soreness is likely to result in Williams' first absence since the Jan. 28 loss to the Warriors. With the swingman expected to be out Monday, John Konchar and Bez Mbeng should help soak up extra minutes.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Strikes for 23 in rout
Rotowire
Williams totaled 23 points (10-16 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 2-4 FT), three rebounds, five assists and one steal over 27 minutes during Thursday's 128-96 victory over the Bucks.
The second-year wing failed to reach 30 minutes for a second straight game, but this time it's because Utah emptied what little bench it had available in the fourth quarter of a rout, rather than Williams' own poor performance. The 10th overall pick in the 2024 Draft has scored in double digits in seven of the last eight games as he handles elevated court time and usage for the shorthanded Jazz, averaging 16.4 points, 5.1 boards, 4.8 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.0 threes in 35.0 minutes over that stretch while shooting 53.2 percent from the floor.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Crashes back to Earth in loss
Rotowire
Williams contributed seven points (3-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists and one steal over 25 minutes during Wednesday's 147-111 loss to the Timberwolves.
Williams was unable to repeat his 34-point performance from three nights earlier, instead turning in arguably his worst performance in the past two weeks. With that said, Williams' role appears relatively safe. In seven appearances over the past two weeks, he has been a top-100 talent in standard leagues, averaging 15.4 points, 5.4 rebounds, 4.7 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.0 three-pointers.
Jazz's Cody Williams: Erupts for career-high 34 in loss
Rotowire
Williams totaled 34 points (12-20 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 7-8 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists, one block and one steal in 38 minutes during Sunday's 116-111 loss to the Kings.
The second-year wing led the Utah offense on the night and shattered his previous career scoring high of 19, set Friday in Portland. Williams has taken on a much larger role for the injury-ravaged Jazz in March, playing at least 36 minutes in six straight games while averaging 16.8 points, 5.5 boards, 5.2 assists, 1.0 steals and 1.0 threes and shooting 51.4 percent from the floor.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Drops career-high 19 in loss
Rotowire
Williams logged 19 points (7-17 FG, 5-7 FT), seven rebounds, three assists and one steal over 36 minutes during Friday's 124-114 loss to Portland.
The 19 points were a career high for the second-year wing. Williams has scored in double digits in five straight games as he handles a bigger workload for the shorthanded Jazz, averaging 13.4 points, 5.2 boards, 4.8 assists and 1.0 steals in a massive 38.0 minutes over that span. With Lauri Markkanen (hip) still sidelined and Ace Bailey exiting Friday's game early due to concussion symptoms, Williams should continue to get leaned on heavily in the short term.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Matches season high in assists
Rotowire
Williams had 12 points (5-12 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), three rebounds, seven assists and one block over 43 minutes during Monday's 119-116 win over the Warriors.
Williams capitalized on the absence of Isaiah Collier (illness) on Monday, tying a season high in assists. Williams is starting to handle heavy playing time for the Jazz, averaging 11.8 points, 5.8 rebounds, 4.8 assists and 1.0 steals in 36.1 minutes per game across his last four appearances.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Records first career double-double
Rotowire
Williams closed with 13 points (4-12 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 4-4 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and two steals across 37 minutes during Saturday's 113-99 loss to the Bucks.
The shooting and scoring woes have plagued Williams throughout his two-year career in the NBA -- even if his percentages have been better in his sophomore year -- and this loss Saturday was just another example of that. Williams did score in double digits for a second straight game, something he hadn't done since early February, and also posted the first double-double of his career, so there's a silver lining for the forward out of Colorado.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Phased out in defeat
Rotowire
Williams contributed three points (1-1 FG, 1-2 FT), one rebound, one assist and one steal over 11 minutes during Monday's 128-125 loss to the Nuggets.
Despite starting, Williams ended up playing the fewest minutes of any active player for the Jazz on Monday. The second-year forward remains difficult to trust from a fantasy perspective, averaging 4.8 points, 2.8 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 23.1 minutes per tilt across his last six games.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Nearly invisible Monday
Rotowire
Williams notched two points (1-3 FG) across 14 minutes during Monday's 125-105 loss to the Rockets.
Brice Sensabaugh and John Konchar both played more minutes, suggesting Williams has a tenuous grip on the starting role. Williams hasn't scored in double figures since the Feb. 3 victory against the Pacers, so fantasy managers can almost certainly find more appealing streaming options.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Joining starting five
Rotowire
Williams is starting Thursday's game against Portland.
Williams will step into the starting lineup with the Jazz missing the majority of their first unit Thursday night. He's averaging 9.0 points, 3.4 rebounds, 1.4 assists, 1.4 steals and 1.0 blocks in his last seven showings as a starter.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Stable source of steals
Rotowire
Williams amassed nine points (4-6 FG, 1-2 3Pt), five rebounds, two assists and three steals across 25 minutes during Wednesday's 121-93 victory over Sacramento.
Williams is carving out a steady role for himself, but his style of play isn't translating into much fantasy relevance on the whole. The forward has averaged 7.4 points, 3.2 rebounds and 1.4 steals in 26.4 minutes per contest in his last 10 games, so his appeal is very limited outside of swipes.
