Former Hug High School standout Sam Williams, who joined the Wolf Pack basketball team on scholarship last season, won’t return to the team next season and will leave the school without playing a game at Nevada.
Williams’ name was removed from the Wolf Pack’s online roster Thursday and coach Eric Musselman confirmed to the Reno Gazette-Journal that Williams won’t return to Nevada for the 2016-17 season.
“We want to wish him well and we’ll help him in the future find his next landing spot,” Musselman said.
Williams, who was born in Decatur, Ga., moved to Reno in 1999 when he was 5 years old.
