Biography

Jay Williams is a television personality, New York Times Best Selling author, and former professional basketball player. He joined college basketball royalty at Duke University when he was named an All-American three times and was a key member of the 2001 NCAA Championship team. In 2002, he was drafted second overall by the Chicago Bulls and was on his way to becoming a household name. But once his first NBA season was over, he found himself in a hospital bed wondering if he could ever walk again after being in a near fatal motorcycle accident. Many people's stories would have ended there. Not Jay Williams. He has too much to say, and too much to offer. He has turned himself from a "could-have-been" to an inspiring public persona, often sharing his emotions and perspective on the tragedy that terminated his career, yet changed his life forever. Williams demonstrates a unique ability to connect with audiences and people alike, sharing a charismatic personality everywhere he goes.

He has appeared on shows and networks like Access Hollywood, Huffington Post, Fox Business, OWN, and ESPN as a host and guest on multiple programs such as Get Up, First Take, and more. His book, "Life Is Not An Accident: A Memoir of Reinvention", takes readers through the thought-process and mindset of a young and growing Jay Williams while earning him New York Times Best Selling honors.

His gripping story is often a topic of discussion, but Williams' unique talents on the screen are what sets him apart. In addition to his ESPN College Gameday analysis, he can also be seen in the new YouTube Red series, "Best Shot", produced by LeBron James' production company Springhill Entertainment. In it, he mentors an inner-city basketball team towards becoming better players and men in the process.
