Williams Eases Wake’s Loss: Wake Forest rising senior center Eric Williams decided not to remain in the NBA Draft because he did not receive a guarantee from NBA scouts that he will be drafted in the first round. Williams’ return lessens the blow to Wake Forest caused by the departure of point guard Chris Paul. Unlike Williams, Paul is unanimously considered a top five pick in the NBA Draft later this month. Williams led Wake Forest last season with 16.1 points and 7.7 rebounds per game. [6/13/05]
