NYC Native Mike Williams Shows Positive Side of The Big Ten Tournament At MSG

NEW YORK CITY — It was scripted, an event written in the stars, four years in the making.

That’s what the Big Ten Tournament coming to Madison Square Garden felt like to Mike Williams, a Brooklyn native who played high school ball five miles away at Bishop Loughlin Memorial High School.

The Rutgers guard waited all of his senior season for the moment to arrive and once the backdrop of Williams’ last year in college basketball finally arrived, it felt like a dream.

With all the negativity surrounding the conference tournament taking place in the Big Apple, Williams represents a shining positive on commissioner Jim Delany’s decision.
