    13.5 MPG, 4.9PPG, 1.3 APG, 1.3RPG and .51 SPG. All this from a second round pick rookie. Over the season, Jerry Sloan has put more and more trust in him and his minutes have increased. Jerry Sloan has no trouble putting him in if Raul Lopez and Carlos Arroyo aren't performing, at any time of the game. He's putting up better numbers than a lot of first rounders, and he's the 3rd option PG on the Utah Jazz team.

    What do you think his future will be like?

    Mo Williams is one of my favorite players out of the whole league, i like the way he plays. Mo has a good future but i highly doubt it's with the Jazz, if Charlotte is smart then they will pick up Mo in the Expansion Draft because Utah has many players that they put before him.

    I like Mo, I still haven't figured out why he never played this good at Alabama? But I'm beginning to think he might have the most potential of all the Jazz PG, I'm affraid that Lopez is too injuried prone, and I think this is probably the best Carlos is going to play, I'm not saying that he is going to go down hill but I think this is about what he'll stay at.

    Your right, because he is Utah 3rd best PG, and normally teams don't pretect a 3rd option. Although I can't see Borchardt been protected because of his injuries(although he has a lot of potential), there still wont be room for Mo. Charlotte will be going for younger players with potential, and Mo fits right in there. I can't see Mo getting ahead of Raul Lopez and Carlos Arroyo in the expansion draft either. Raul Lopez has played every game this year coming back from a season where he didn't play a game. Carlos has the experience, and right now is the best so there's almost no chance he'll be going to Charlotte.
    I think having Mo as a a 3rd option PG actually helps him, because he tries to get more minutes and Jerry Sloan's not afraid to give it to him.
