Nets Guard Williams Set to Return Tuesday

Brooklyn Nets point guard Deron Williams says he will play Tuesday against the Milwaukee Bucks.

Williams missed the past two games with inflammation in both ankles. The three-time All-Star received platelet-rich plasma injections in both of his ankles last week.

“It definitely feels better than it did before I did it,” said Williams, who returned to practice Monday. “[The doctors] said a week [of rest] was sufficient, so I trust the doctors. I definitely need more rest than a week for it to get back to normal, but I don’t have time right now.”

It is unknown how many minutes Williams will be able to log on Tuesday night or if he’ll be able to play in the second half of a home-and-home in Milwaukee on Wednesday night.
