Williams Expected To Sign With Orlando
He is a solid backup behind Nelson, hes a veteran, brings playmaking.
He didn't play all of last year, and when he has runs in the Orlando area (Summer leagues @ RDV/Pro Ams), he struggles defending players w/college experience, and players such as myself who've played professionally either here in the states, or overseas. There are several players the Magic could've picked up who didn't get drafted that would've certainly been better for them in a back up role. (Levance Fields and Jeremy Pargo).
Granted, he provides veteran leadership in terms of experience, but he's still a headcase, and will definitely get into it a time or two w/Danny Devito, I mean Coach Stan Van Gundy.
I've stood behind most of Otis' decisions, but I don't agree w/this one.
