Doug West used to miss a dozen games in a stretch with an inflamed hangnail.  Even though Jason Williams wasn't with the Grizzlies at the time, he seems to have picked up a few pointers long distance.

Ron Tillery of the Memphis Commercial Appeal reports that J-Will missed Monday and Wednesday's games after having ingrown toenails removed from each foot on Monday.  Williams had played with the condition all season

The timing is interesting.  Coach Sidney Lowe blamed Williams for the Grizzlies' loss to the Bulls on Saturday.  Williams was, um, not responsible in his care of the ball during the fourth quarter as the Bulls overcame a 10 point deficit.  Backup Brevin Knight started in Monday's overtime win over the Clippers, and Wednesday's one-point loss to the Pacers.
