It was a question that left Patrick Williams searching for the right words.
“I think you can kind of … you know what I mean, kind of, um, just kind of feel how it is right now,” the Bulls forward eventually replied when asked about his emotions. “It’s a lot at one time to go from thinking you are ramping up to play on Tuesday to a couple of days later having to have surgery. Not easy at all.”
For Williams or his team.
But now both have to move forward. That’s what Saturday marked.
Williams headed for season-ending surgery on his left foot in the next few weeks, while the rest of his teammates had a quick practice and were headed off to New Orleans, short-handed and searching for answers.
