Deron Williams: Will not return Monday

Williams won't return to Monday's game against the Hawks after suffering a right hip contusion, Earl K. Sneed of Mavs.com reports.

Analysis:

Williams sustained the injury late in the first quarter, and the original word was that he would be able to return. Unfortunately, he's now been formally ruled out, and exits with no points (0-5 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one steal in eight minutes of action. The severity of the injury is unknown, so Williams will remain listed as day-to-day in advance of Wednesday's game against the Heat until further notice.
