Coupled with playing defense extremely well thanks to his strength, athleticism, and attention to detail. Williams could also score with the best leading the league twice in field goal percentage. Thriving around the rim punishing other bigs and throwing down thunderous dunks. One time even bending the rim in the NBA finals. All of which helped Buck Williams carve out a long 17-year career in the NBA. Which started off hot for the Nets winning the rookie of the year and became and all star which was the first of three for him. Williams quickly became the go to guy in new jersey helping the team to multiple playoff birth and became an ALL-NBA player. Being one of the best power forwards in the game. Before heading to the Trailblazers where he would take on a smaller role with no complaints to win. And the blazers won a lot making two NBA finals with Williams at the power forward position. Becoming there leading rebounder and best defender making four all defensive teams.
