Marvin Williams

Hornets will have Marvin Williams (finger) in lineup opening night

Charlotte Hornets forward Marvin Williams (left finger) will play in the regular-season opener against the Milwaukee Bucks on Wednesday, according to Rick Bonnell of the Charlotte Observer.

What It Means:

The injury to his finger was minor and he'll be ready to roll. Williams provides a great deal of upside at his late-round cost.

Our models project Williams for 12.9 points, 5.8 rebounds and 1.0 blocks per game this season. We expect him to play 30 minutes a night while averaging 44.9 percent from the field.
