Golden State Warriors guard Brandon Williams has a mild left hamstring strain and will be re-evaluated in one week, the team said on Tuesday, Nov. 10.
Williams left Monday’s 138-87 win over the New Orleans Pelicans with 3:18 remaining in the first quarter. The Warriors said he underwent an MRI that night. Hoops Rumors, citing ESPN’s Anthony Slater, reported the same diagnosis and timeline. The team said Williams has averaged 10.4 points, 2.3 assists and 2.1 rebounds in 10 games (one start) this season.

The second-year guard, a key part of the Warriors' seven-game winning streak, will miss Monday's game at Chase Center and has no set timeline to return.
The 8-3 Warriors start a five-game road trip at the 8-3 Rockets tonight at 6:30 p.m. PST, carrying an eight-game winning streak after Monday’s 138-87 win over New Orleans.
The exemption means Aiyuk does not count against the 53-man roster until after the 49ers’ Week 11 game in Mexico City. The team can release, trade or keep him.
