For Williams, the 2018-19 season was more of a learning experience off the floor, about life as a professional and grown man. When he returned home to Vivian, La., Williams made the decision along with four of his friends to “LOE” tattoos as a means of bonding and to cement their friendship and commitment to each other. “It’s LOE — loyalty over everything,” Williams said. “It took an hour, an hour and 20 minutes [to get done]. It hurt bad as hell, though. Loyalty means a lot, you know what I’m saying, more than family at times. Not everybody is going to be loyal to you, so I try to live by loyalty. Me and all my homeboys, we try to live by loyalty, be loyal to this game and it’s going to pay you back. You’ve just got to be loyal throughout everything.”
Fatherhood has also matured Williams. He is just 21 years old, but Williams said he understands that he is no longer alone on this NBA journey. Ava depends on him and he fully accepts that responsibility. “It’s the best thing ever. I love my daughter. I love my daughter to death; I’d do anything for her,” he said. “I feel like she’s the main motivation. You want them to have everything. You want to see her smile. That’s crazy because it’s the first time I’m experiencing that and the drive is so urgent when you see her. You want to do everything possible for them. So I’m so thankful.
John Karalis: Rob Williams on his passing “I feel like I’m seeing plays ahead… I’m passing to you because I know this man is going to help over & you’re going to be able to swing it & get a wide open shot. I love catching the ball in the post & picking the defense apart on the opposite side”
