Williams is well on his way to a double-double. The starting forward has 7 points (3-of-6 field goals, 1-of-3 3-pointers) and 8 rebounds in the first half, helping Eric Musselman’s squad to a 32-29 lead over Gonzaga. Williams also has an assistant and a block.
The Razorbacks finished the half on a 13-2 run. JD Notae is the game’s leading scorer with 10 points on 5-of-14 shooting from the field.
We’ll see if Williams and the Hogs can keep it going in the second half. The game is airing on CBS.
