The Suns are holding a free agent minicamp Wednesday to take a look at their first-round pick, Markieff Morris, and a mix of undrafted rookies as well as pros who have competed in Europe or the D-League. The most well-known name in the group is Sean Williams, the former first-round pick of New Jersey whose talent was offset by troubles that date back to when he was Jared Dudley's teammate at Boston College.

Hapoel Jerusalem could bring another former NBA players for the upcoming roster. Sean Williams is now the main target of the Israeli team. The 23-year-old American forward played last season in China, for Fujian, and in Puerto Rico, for the Mets de Guaynabo, after being waived on January by the New Jersey Nets, where he was playing since 2007.

Sean Williams is seeking a second chance. Banished from Boston College for repeated violations of team rules, the Nets made him a first-round pick in 2007, and it appeared to be the right move after he played in 79 games as a rookie. But a poor attitude and lack of production limited Williams to 53 games over the next two seasons, and the Nets released him last January. That created an opportunity to play in China, a move he said helped him mature. In the Las Vegas Summer League, he averaged 7.2 points, 4.4 rebounds, and 15 minutes in five games for the Bucks. Williams turns 24 in September and with the way money is being handed to forwards and centers with limited skills, he wants back in the league. “Just out here trying to show some of these NBA teams what I can do,’’ he said. “To show what type of person I am.’’ Boston Globe
