The hope is that OKC Thunder forward Jalen Williams will be ready to go for the club's regular season tip-off later on this month following offseason wrist surgery.
Of course, despite all signs pointing toward the operation being a success, and guys like Ajay Mitchell raving about his newly improved left-hand game, official guarantees regarding the All-Star's availability have yet to be made.
In fact, GM Sam Presti kept things rather coy last week when discussing his potential return to action, saying that "we'll see where we are" with Williams' rehab and recovery once training camp concludes.
