Posted Nov 8, 2018
Marvin Williams was traveling in Spain last spring when the Charlotte Hornets picked their new coach. It was past midnight in Europe and an unfamiliar phone number showed up on his cell phone, so Williams let the call go to voice mail. The next day he called back new coach James Borrego, and they set up a lunch appointment at Charlotte’s Cheesecake Factory. (Charlotte Observer)
