Tryout time for ex-Heels
Posted Jul 10, 2007
Jawad Williams has spent a year in Spain and another year in the NBA Development League. Now he's with the Charlotte Bobcats as part of their summer league roster this week in Orlando, where he hopes to make a strong enough impression that he finds work in the NBA, preferably with the Bobcat. Williams and former North Carolina teammate Jackie Manuel are reunited with the Bobcats this summer, trying to take the next major step in their post-college basketball careers.
