Former Tar Heel Scott Williams Talks Michael Jordan, Dean Smith
Posted May 9, 2020
Scott Williams, one of North Carolina’s best players of the late 1980s, hopped on the All ACC podcast to reflect on his time in Chapel Hill with Dean Smith and his run in Chicago with Michael Jordan. Despite averaging 14.5 points and 7.3 rebounds per game during his senior season at Carolina, the 6-foot-10 big man went undrafted in the 1990 NBA draft.
