Hawks Lose Marvin Williams 6-8 Weeks
Posted Oct 27, 2006
Just as Speedy Claxton was returning, the Atlanta Hawks lost Marvin Williams to the same injury. Williams, the No. 2 overall pick in last year's NBA draft, broke a bone in his left hand during practice Thursday and will be out up to eight weeks. Coach Mike Woodson said the injury occurred as Williams swiped at the ball during a routine drill, just as he was getting ready for his first season as a starter.
