Freshman Williams healing
Paul Williams said he’s still only about 85 percent recovered from the broken bone in his left foot that caused him to miss most of the preseason. He also suffered another setback last week with an inner-ear infection forced him to the sidelines for two games.
“It was painful,” the Dayton freshman said of the latter ailment. “In quiet places, it didn’t hurt, but if you’re around a lot of noise, it feels like your head is going to explode.”
The 6-foot-3 guard finished third in Michigan’s Mr. Basketball voting last year, once scoring 55 points in a game. His high game with the Flyers has been nine points, and he believes fans have seen only a fraction of his talents.
“I can do it all,” he said. “I just don’t give up. When I’m 100 percent healthy, I’ll do everything that’s needed of me — and even more.”
