Former Arizona Wildcats Star Derrick Williams gets a blessing from the King, LeBron James

When the King speaks you listen. After the Cavs had won against the Denver Nuggets Saturday night, Lebron James spoke very highly of Derrick Williams. “We hope that this is a long-term thing. Obviously, we know that he’s on a 10-day contract, but we believe it’s going to be long-term.” Also, he also spoke highly of Williams’s athletic abilities.

What a story this is turning into! From being drafted first round, No. 2 in the 2011 NBA Draft, to playing on five different NBA teams in six seasons, Williams has certainly been through it all.
