Former 2nd overall pick Jay Williams is expected to play in an NBA game for the first time since his accident in 2003 when the New Jersey Nets face the Indiana Pacers in a preseason game tonight at Conseco Fieldhouse.

"It's going to be a fun time," Williams said Tuesday after practicing with the Nets. "I really don't see the crowd. I am into the game. That's what I look forward to the most, the game and playing against new competition. I want to get my legs right. I am going to be ready for it."
