24 Seconds with Justin Williams
Last Updated 12:59 am PDT Sunday, October 8, 2006
Position: Center
Height: 6-foot-10
NBA seasons: Rookie
College and stats: Wyoming -- Averaged 10.1 points, 8.7 rebounds and 4.2 blocked shots.
Collegiate notable: All-time shot blocker in Mountain West Conference with 244 in two seasons.
Q&A
Q: What can you bring the Kings?
A: Tenacious defense, great shot blocking and rebounding, and I play real hard.
Q: How hard was it to watch the draft unfold and your name not be called?
A: It was very disappointing. All the mock drafts had me getting drafted, some in the first round. When the second round came, that's when I got really nervous. But it's not the worst-case scenario for me.
Q: What does one do in Wyoming when there's 10 feet of snow outside?
A: Go to the gym (laughing). And a lot of video games.
Q: Favorite player growing up?
A: Michael Jordan. And Michigan. I was a big fan. I can't believe Mo Taylor is with us now. Watched him all the time.
Q: You have a twin brother?
A: Yes, Jason. We're very close. If I stick with the Kings, I'm going to bring him out.
Q: Worst part of being a twin?
A: When we were younger, our mother dressed us alike. We grew to have our own identities.
