NBC SportsRobert Williams III recorded 20 points (9-of-13 FGs, 2-of-2 FTs), 11 rebounds, one steal and three blocks in Wednesday's win over the Grizzlies.

Due to Donovan Clingan's second-quarter ejection, Williams' role took on added importance in Memphis. And the Time Lord was up to the task, scoring a season-high 20 points and recording his fourth double-double of the season. Williams has played 20 minutes or more in just five games this season, making him a challenging player to trust in most fantasy leagues.

NBC SportsDonovan Clingan was ejected from Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies with 3:14 remaining in the second quarter.

Clingan received his marching orders after having elbowed Grizzlies forward Olivier-Maxence Prosper in the jaw while attempting to shield the basketball. Officials deemed the play severe enough to warrant a Flagrant 2 foul, resulting in Clingan's ejection. Robert Williams III will have added importance for the remainder of Wednesday's game. Clingan finished with seven points, nine rebounds, one assist, one steal and three blocked shots.

NBC SportsRobert Williams III (knee) is not on the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Grizzlies.

Williams did not play in Portland's loss to the Hawks on Sunday, as it was the Trail Blazers' second game in as many days. He'll slot in as Donovan Clingan's backup, while Yang Hansen has been sent to the team's G League affiliate to get some game time.

NBC SportsYang Hansen (back) is available for Sunday's game against the Hawks.

Hansen is available for Sunday's game and may pick up a few minutes since the Trail Blazers won't have Robert Williams III (knee). This also means more playing time for starter Donovan Clingan, so fantasy managers should not expect too much from Hansen.

NBC SportsRobert Williams III (knee) is out for Sunday's game against the Hawks.

Sunday's game is the second in as many days for the Trail Blazers, so Williams' absence was expected. Yang Hansen (back) is questionable; he'll likely play a few rotation minutes if cleared to play. He is not worth rostering in redraft leagues.
