Justin Martinez: Jalen Williams held a five-star dinner Sunday that hosted approximately 125 guests served by City Rescue Mission, which helps those experiencing homelessness. The dinner was held through the WTTP Foundation, a philanthropic platform of brothers Jalen and Cody Williams that’s led by their mother, Nicole. Paycom also announced Monday that it donated $100,000 to the WTTP Foundation. It funded Sunday’s dinner and will support future dinner events in OKC and Arizona.

Justin Martinez: Jason Bodin, executive vice president of marketing and communications at Paycom: “Paycom is proud to help make the Williams Brothers Sunday Dinner possible for families who may not often have the chance to be served in this way. Our partnership with Jalen has always been about more than promoting Paycom’s software. It extends into the community, where we can support efforts that bring people together and make a lasting impact.”

The Minnesota Timberwolves today announced the team has acquired forwards John Konchar and Cody Williams from the Utah Jazz in exchange for guard Josh Green and cash considerations.

Shams Charania: The Timberwolves are expected to keep Cody Williams, the No. 10 pick in 2024, and waive-and-stretch John Konchar, sources said. They found a home for Josh Green on a Jazz team that wanted an additional 3-and-D wing; moving his $14.7 million deal gives Minnesota the salary space to sign Jonathan Kuminga using the taxpayer midlevel exception.

Erik Slater: The Jazz ruled out Lauri Markkanen (Rest), Jusuf Nurkic (Illness), and Kevin Love (Illness) tonight vs. the Nets. Cody Williams (Illness) is questionable.

Adding to the misery, sophomore forward Cody Williams set a new NBA record for the worst single-game plus-minus in at least the last 30 years of tracking data, posting -60. The previous record of -58 was shared by Scoot Henderson and Jeremiah Robinson-Earl. Williams started the game and scored 15 points over 32.5 minutes. This season, the 21-year-old is averaging 4.6 points and -4.2 plus-minus per game.
