Charlotte Hornets forward Marvin Williams still remembers it, even all these years later.
That ambiguous “it,” is the lone 3-pointer Williams made his third season in the NBA, back in 2007-2008 with the Atlanta Hawks. Yes, the lone one for the entire season.
“I was at Detroit, it was a half-court shot,” Williams said after Wednesday night’s 101-96 loss to the New Orleans Pelicans. “No joke. And the funny thing is, all the 3s I took that year (10) were at the ends of the quarter.”
But the numbers in this case are deceiving.
