Fantasy Analysis
Williams was a flashy floor general when he first entered the league back in 1998 with the Kings, and he proved to be one of the more crafty passers during his prime. "White Chocolate" -- as he was nicknamed -- finished with a career average of 5.9 assists per game. He wasn't much of a Fantasy contributor down the stretch of his career, especially this past season with the Grizzlies, when he dealt with ongoing back issues. Owners should not have had him on any active rosters at this point anyway. (Updated 04/18/2011).
