Williamson To Retire, Begin Coaching Career

Corliss Williamson is set to retire from the NBA and become an assistant coach at Arkansas Baptist College, the school's athletic director said Tuesday.

Williamson, who led Arkansas to the 1994 national championship, has played 12 pro seasons with Sacramento, Toronto, Detroit and Philadelphia. He was on the Pistons when they won the 2004 NBA title.

Williamson averaged 9.1 points in 68 games last season with Sacramento.

Bibby For Williams, Part II?

According to a league source, a trade was discussed this summer that would have sent Mike Bibby to Miami and brought Jason Williams back to Sacramento. Williams and forward Udonis Haslem were offered in return, and possibly draft picks. Additionally, Miami was seriously interested in Artest, but the Kings didn't appear eager to move the small forward.

The consensus seems to be that -- barring an offer they can't refuse -- the Kings want to see Artest in action this season and feel somewhat confident he will both produce and avoid the off-court controversy that marred last season.
