However, things are about to change for Williams-Goss. Real Madrid's head coach Chus Mateo announced that the player is about to make a comeback to the court in the EuroLeague against ALBA Berlin tomorrow.

Additionally, the Spanish specialist told that Fabien Causeur has also returned to practice but he most likely won't be available for the match this week.

Williams-Goss was initially seen as an integral part of Real Madrid's backcourt. Last season, the player averaged 5.8 points, 2.1 rebounds, and 2.4 assists for 5.6 PIR in the EuroLeague last season. His numbers were a bit better in the Spanish Liga Endesa - 7.4 points, 2.3 rebounds, and 1.9 assists for 7.7 PIR.

After beating EA7 Emporio Armani Milan and Anadolu Efes Istanbul, Real Madrid now have a win-loss record of 4-and-3 in the EuroLeague and are placed 5th in the tournament's standings.
