- Elliot Williams - Has signed his rookie deal, and is waiting for Moody Fernandez to leave. It's the only way he'll get a minute. And even then, with Matthews on board, it won't be easy.

   Sham's 2010 NBA Draft Night Recap, Part 1
2010-06-27

Pick 22: Portland picks next, and Stu Scott can't help but remind us that Kevin Pritchard is being fired after this. In fact, the firing is manipulated by Scott's scriptwriter into making Pritchard seem like a victim, a martyr, a man who did no wrong and who merely cops the flack for the failings of others. But who was it that released the story of the firing early, so that it was out in time for the broadcast and overshadowed what Portland did? Paul Allen or Kevin Pritchard? I vote B. And frankly, we knew this was coming for about two months anyway. It's not business, Sonny, it's strictly personal.

In his last significant act, Pritchard drafts Elliot Williams. Rudy Fernandez just sulked some more, because his role as the athletic backup two just got marginalised.

The Williams pick gives Jay Bilas the opportunity for another monologue. If all the on-camera personalities tonight are paid by the word, Jay need never work again. Additionally, in a change of operational procedure from the way draft night usually unfolds, tonight's broadcast is being daubed with a series of long, slow camera zooms onto the draft board. In the case of Elliot Williams, we also get to see the fingers of the man whose job it is to put those things in. I wonder what he does the rest of the year.

Note: Non-US teams that the player has played for are, unless stated otherwise, from the top division in that nation. If league or division name is expressly stated, it's not the top division. The only exceptions to this are the rare occasions where no one league is said to be above the other, such as with the JBL/BJ League split inJapan.

In the event where more than one agent is listed, this is because the player has more than one agent. This is rather commonplace - a lot of times, a player will sign with a big agency, and they will have both primary and secondary agents from within that agency to handle their affairs. (Where that happens, the primary agent is listed first.) Also, foreign players tend to have both American and domestic agents. Where the details of such are known, they are listed.
