Florida State basketball’s Patrick Williams declares for NBA Draft

Florida State freshman Patrick Williams had a breakout season, nabbing Sixth Man of the Year honors for his play as an essential part for the ACC champions.

Now, he’s headed to the NBA.

“I’d like to thank my parents, because without them this giant step in my career would not be possible,” said Williams. “I’d also like to thank Coach Hamilton and his entire staff because they have all helped me mature as a player and a person. Most of all, I’d like to thank my teammates for being brothers and for supporting me wholeheartedly and helping me make this decision.
