Bulls' Patrick Williams: Ready for training camp
Bulls vice president Arturas Karnisovas said Monday that Williams (foot) has been cleared for training camp, Cody Westerlund of 670TheScore.com reports.
Despite getting clearance for all things including contact and 5-on-5 scrimmages, Karnisovas did caution that the Bulls may hold Williams out of some stuff to bring him along slowly. Williams experienced foot discomfort during the Bulls' recent minicamp, but it sounds like he's progressing very quickly to the relief of the franchise.

Bulls' Patrick Williams: Dealing with foot discomfort
Williams experienced foot discomfort during the Bulls' recent minicamp and has required additional rest in recent weeks, Darnell Mayberry of The Athletic reported Monday.
Williams indicated earlier this summer that he was fully recovered from his February foot surgery and was pain-free, but he experienced a setback during the team's offseason activities. He signed a five-year deal with the Bulls in late June, but it's not yet clear whether his recent discomfort will impact his availability for the start of training camp.

Bulls' Patrick Williams: Should be ready for training camp
Williams (foot) said Saturday that the bone in his foot is fully healed, and he should be ready for training camp in the fall, K.C. Johnson of NBC Sports Chicago reports.
Williams said he is now running and jumping pain-free after undergoing season-ending surgery in February. The 22-year-old signed a five-year, $90 million pact to stay with the Bulls this offseason, and his health will be a huge factor for the rebuilding club. In 43 regular-season games last season, Williams averaged 10.0 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.5 assists while shooting 39.9 percent from deep.

Bulls' Patrick Williams: Stays in Chicago on four-year deal
Williams (foot) and the Bulls agreed Saturday on a five-year, $90 million contract, Shams Charania of The Athletic reports.
Williams has had a lot of ups and downs with the Bulls after joining the organization as the No. 4 overall pick of the 2020 NBA Draft, but he's a career 41 percent shooter from beyond the arc who has excelled as an on-ball defender. Set to turn 23 years old in August, Williams may still have some untapped upside if he can avoid the health issues that cut short his 2021-22 and 2023-24 seasons. He's currently recovering from the left foot surgery he underwent in February, but the expectation is that he'll be ready to go for training camp.

Bulls' Patrick Williams: Bulls extend qualifying offer
The Bulls extended their qualifying offer to Williams (foot) on Monday, making him a restricted free agent, Jake Fischer of Yahoo Sports reports.
Williams will now be able to negotiate with other teams when free agency starts June 30; however, the Bulls will have the opportunity to match any offers he receives. The 22-year-old had his 2023-24 season cut short due to a left foot injury, and he averaged 10.0 points, 3.9 rebounds and 1.5 assists across 27.3 minutes in 43 regular-season appearances. While it is not fully clear what direction the Bulls are currently trending in, Williams is still young and would fit the mold of a rebuild player who could remain with the team for a significant time.

Bulls' Patrick Williams: Still without clear target date
Bulls head coach Billy Donovan said Williams (foot) has begun light ramp-up activities but hasn't resumed running and remains without a clear timeline for returning to game action, Julia Poe of the Chicago Tribune reports.
Williams hasn't played since Jan. 25 due to a bone edema in his left foot. Though Williams seems to be in a better spot on the health front nearly a month after suffering the injury, he still appears to be at least a week or more away from being ready to play in games. Williams can safely be ruled out for Thursday's game against the Celtics, and likely a few more contests to follow.
