Los Angeles Clippers guard Lou Williams has been the subject of much speculation over the past few weeks regarding whether he would go to the Walt Disney World restart site. Williams had told the Los Angeles Times’ Andrew Grief that he was 50-50 on joining his team in the restart and Williams also expressed some exasperation on twitter with some of the league’s social distancing policies outside of games while they’re at Disney World. But his head coach Doc Rivers believes the two-time defending 6th Man of the Year will join the Clippers, as they are one of the three biggest favorites, alongside the Lakers and Bucks, to win the championship.
Rivers told this to reporters on a conference call Wednesday.
Williams has been a key to the Clippers success over the last two seasons. This season, he is their third-leading scorer, averaging 18.7 points per game. He’s also second on the team behind Kawhi Leonard in free-throws made per game.
