Williams used air quotes when he said "out of shape" during his availability with reporters after Friday's practice, likely in reference to U.S. men's basketball president Jerry Colangelo's comment about him "being a little overweight." Asked if he's in great shape now, Williams responded, "I was in great shape then too. You can ask anybody." He said his left ankle is more injured than his right ankle. Williams got his first cortisone shot to ease the inflammation in his left ankle, which was caused by a bone spur. The next day, he got another cortisone shot in his right ankle.

The problem was I haven't had a break in a long time," Williams said. "I was doing plyometrics, box jumps this summer for the first time. I lifted heavier than I've ever lifted, and so I think all the wear and tear is what's caused the inflammation, and I haven't had a break to get it out. It's just gotten worse and worse. It didn't feel as bad because I wasn't playing back-to-backs and four in five nights, then we got to the season. It just kept getting worse and worse because you have less and less rest." Williams said playing in back-to-backs "has been really hard for me this year." Despite being hampered by his ankles due to constant inflammation, Williams missed just the two games prior to the All-Star break as a result. He missed a third game Dec. 26 due to a bruised right wrist. He has also been bothered by quadriceps and shoulder discomfort this season. Williams underwent platelet-rich plasma therapy Feb. 11 and took a week off to rest. He has since returned and averaged 21.0 points and 8.5 assists in victories over the Milwaukee Bucks on Tuesday and Wednesday night. Poirier was eager to return the fight to the floor in the second session and succeeded when he executed a spectacular takedown following an attempted backhand from Swanson.
