GoFrogs: Williams Makes Pelicans Roster

FORT WORTH, Texas – Recent TCU graduate Kenrich Williams has made the opening night roster for the New Orleans Pelicans.

Williams becomes the first former TCU player on an NBA regular season roster since 2012-13, Kurt Thomas' final season with the New York Knicks.

After going undrafted, the two-time All-Big 12 Conference guard was added to the Denver Nuggets' NBA Summer League roster on June 25. On July 24, Williams, along with another TCU 1,000 point scorer, Garlon Green, signed with the Pelicans. It was believed that Green and Williams along with Jarrett Jack and Troy Williams were all fighting for two roster spots. The Pelicans waived Green and Jack on Saturday.

In five preseason games, Williams averaged 2.4 points, 3.4 rebounds and 0.4 assists per game.

A Waco native, Williams will begin his career in his home state as New Orleans opens the regular at Houston Wednesday at 7 p.m. on ESPN.
