The entire New Orleans Pelicans organization was left heartbroken Wednesday after learning the wife of former head coach Monty Williams passed away from injuries sustained in an automobile accident on Tuesday night.
About an hour prior to tip-off, the horrible news began circulating throughout the Smoothie King Center. According to Jrue Holiday, he learned about the death of Ingrid Williams from Ryan Anderson after finishing his pre-game workout. Due to the enormity of the news, Holiday initially didn't believe it and had to ask five different people if it was true.
