SALT LAKE CITY, Utah – The outside perception of Patrick Williams makes the young Bulls forward laugh.
“I’m not a robot,’’ Williams said. “I feel like my teammates and coaches know what I’m about, but I can’t just be what people outside the building think I should be. I know my skillset, my body, and I’m figuring things out. I know what I’m capable of doing, and what I still need to work on.’’
So does his coach.
That’s why Billy Donovan went out of his way on Monday to not only speak about how he feels Williams should be perceived by others, but really all young players.
