Jalen Williams struggles with shot, relies on defense in win
by Dan Tursky | Thunder Correspondent | Sun, Mar 19th 9:39pm EDT
Jalen Williams had a rough shooting performance on Sunday, managing just five points (1-6 FG, 3-4 FT) to go with 10 rebounds, five assists, two steals, and a block over 28 minutes as the Thunder downed the Suns 124-120.
Fantasy Impact:
While Williams struggled offensively Sunday, he reiterated the fact that he can contribute effectively in other areas by filling up the stat sheet. The rookie's defensive presence was crucial against Phoenix, and he snagged double-digit rebounds for just the second time this season. Williams will be especially needed by the Thunder as the season winds down, and as they head towards the team's first playoff berth since the 2019-2020 campaign.
