Jason Williams Retires

Jason Williams a one time winner of an NBA Championship with the Miami Heat announced his retirement after being traded to the Los Angeles Clippers several weeks ago.  Williams was drafted in 1998 by the Sacramento Kings and has played in the league for 10 years.

Jason the 6′ 1″ 180 pound trickster ended his career with averages of 39% field goal shooting, 32% three point shooting, 81% free throw shooting, 11.4 points per game, 6.3 assists per game, 1.2 steals per game and 2.4 rebounds per game.

Coming out of college Williams was notable for his flare, spark and determination.  He did other things other point guards wouldn’t try.  This also marked him as a hot-dogger and a turnover liability.  It was always entertaining watching his skills and he will be missed on the court by many.
