    Jay Williams Has No Plans To Resume Career
    November 7, 2007 - 10:58 am
    Daily Herald -
    Former Duke and Bulls guard Jay Williams has no plans to resume his basketball career. Williams is working for a fitness company, doing motivational speaking and wants to advance in the business world, according to agent Kevin Bradbury.

    The No. 2 pick of the 2002 draft, Williams attempted an NBA comeback last season after taking three years to recover from serious injuries he suffered in a motorcycle accident on Chicago's North Side.

    The 6-foot-2 guard played five preseason games with the New Jersey Nets , then spent about a month with the Austin Toros in the D-League before being released Dec. 31. [READ]
    Small guys have to prove they can play; big guys have to prove they cannot
    play. Guards have to be like a chain with no weak links, guards cannot have
    any physical weaknesses.

    He's smart and savvy enough to find success outside of the hardwood. He'll be fine. Too bad though, son was real nice @ Duke.

    A damn shame, too bad he was an idiot. He's better off focusing his time on other stuff, a return to the NBA wasn't happening.

    That sucks. My hate is strong for Duke, but he was a positive kid. Did he get his degree?

    I don't really feel too bad for him...I'm sure he doesn't feel bad for himself.....Anyone who's seem him on tv can tell he's an intelligent person..and he has a degree from Duke...and he has connections to great companies im sure...No doubt he'll be successful in the business world...Trust me he'll be eating more than most of us will

    Was he really a completely different player? Anyone see him play after the accident can comment on this?
