Utah's Deron Williams joked on Monday that he believes coach Jerry Sloan will still be coaching the Jazz when the point guard retires.

"I told ya," Williams said, "I'm going to retire before he retires."

News broke recently that Sloan has agreed to return as the team's coach for the 2009-10 season. Sloan will be 68 when his contract expires in the summer of 2010.

"He still has a passion for it. Why not?" Williams said
