Williams (knee) could return to game action as soon as Thursday against the Nets, George Thomas of the Akron Beacon Journal reports.

Analysis:

Williams, who has been sidelined since Feb. 24 with left knee soreness, returned to full-contact practice Tuesday. The Cavaliers will likely want to observe Williams a little longer in practices before allowing him to play again, so he figures to remain out for Wednesday's tilt with the Bucks. If he endures no setbacks in the next day or two, Williams could be called upon to suit up in the second half of the Cavs' back-to-back set Thursday, but don't expect him to see meaningful court time in such a scenario. He's third on the depth chart at point guard behind starter Kyrie Irving and Matthew Dellavedova.
