Deron Williams is doubtful for Dallas on Monday

Dallas Mavericks guard Deron Williams (toe) is doubtful for Monday's game against the Denver Nuggets.

What It Means:

Williams was initially ruled a game-time decision, so it looks like he has been downgraded since then. The Mavericks have little reason to rush back Williams with the way that Yogi Ferrell and Seth Curry are playing together, so expect those two young guards to carry the load in the backcourt for Dallas on Monday.

Williams is averaging 13.5 points, 7.1 assists and 2.7 rebounds over 30.1 minutes per game this season. He owns a .501 effective field goal percentage and his nERD of -1.0 ranks 319th among all players.
