Watch. CJ Huntley sees more run when Mark Williams is off the floor, but this is a three-game sample, so treat it as a hint, not a plan.
Williams is out for Phoenix, with a return date of 2027-02-01. That is a long absence and opens up minutes at center and forward for whoever Phoenix trusts next.
In the 3 games without Williams, Huntley averaged 7.6 FPG on 12.0 minutes, up from 1.2 FPG on 4.0 minutes with him on the floor. That is a real jump in playing time, but three games is not enough to call it a trend.
Huntley sits at 6.0 FPG on the season across 4 games, and he is only 1% rostered, so he is sitting on the wire in basically every league. Worth stashing in deep formats to see if the extra minutes hold up.
One wrinkle: Huntley himself is questionable and reportedly set to miss Phoenix's final three games in Las Vegas, so don't expect the bump to show up right away.
For props, none of this is actionable yet given the sample, so pass on markets until the minutes pattern repeats over more games.
