Illinois Basketball: Deron Williams dishes out best assist of his career

Williams played with four different teams in the NBA amassing some impressive numbers at each stop. His best years were by far with the Utah Jazz where he averaged 17.3 points and 9.1 assists per game. He would eventually move on from the Jazz and finish his career as a three-time All-Star and a two-time All-NBA player.
