Men's Basketball: Former Lobo Tim Williams signs deal to play overseas

Former Lobo forward Tim Williams worked out for a few NBA teams, but found himself on the outside-looking-in after the draft.

He still found a way to begin a pro career as multiple reports confirmed the big man signed with Atomeru0151mu0171 SE, a professional basketball team based in Paks, Hungary.

Although Williams will be thousands of miles away from the United States and likely adjusting to a vastly different environment, there will also be some familiarity as well.

The team website projects four Americans to be in the starting lineup, including Williams at center.

Fellow Americans Jabarie Hinds and Seth Allen will make up the backcourt, while 28-year-old Troy Barnies joins Hungarian forward Janos Eilingsfeld in the frontcourt.
