Bulls forward Patrick Williams not being viewed as a savior

The Bulls coach feels like Williams can be a solid defender and bring some physicality to the frontcourt when he gets the nod from medical, but there’s also a reality to the left wrist injury. Specifically, the timing of it. Williams was limited in training camp with a bum ankle, and then when he did return, the second-year forward lasted just five games before suffering the injury against the Knicks.

So for all this time to go by, and then to drop Williams into the last few weeks of the regular season and the fire of the playoffs expecting him to be a difference maker?
