- Ariel Helwani interviews Jason "White Chocolate" Williams, 90s NBA icon on the current Sacramento Kings being better than the Kings he played for, his cult hero status, while he dislikes aspects of modern NBA and more.
When you talk about 1990s NBA nostalgia, sure, you think about Jordan's Bulls, Ewing's Knicks, Reggie's Pacers, The Dream Team, and Shaq and Penny's Orlando Magic.
But the memories don't stop there.
Because at the tail end of the decade, a cult icon emerged. And that transformative figure -- a skinny white point guard from West Virginia lauded for his flair and swagger on the court -- joins Ariel Helwani on today's program. The guys discuss:
• Why he believes the 2022-23 Sacramento Kings are better than
the early 2000s Kings he played for
• His cult icon status and why fans look back on his career so
fondly
• If he was comfortable serving as an inspiration for white children
in America
• The origins of his unforgettable nickname
• Why he dislikes modern NBA trends like load management and
the play-in tournament
• What he would tell his younger self
Plus, Williams talks about rookie hazing he experienced, the one current NBA player who most closely resembles his game, and how YOU could play a round of golf with him!
Jason Williams played in the NBA from 1998 - 2011. Drafted with the 7th overall pick by the Sacramento Kings in 1998, "White Chocolate" also played for the Memphis Grizzlies, Orlando Magic, and Miami Heat, where he won a championship alongside Dwyane Wade and Shaquille O'Neal in 2006.

Great era in basketball.
Ariel Helwani, the only man who has now interviewed both White Chocolate and Sexual Chocolate.
Jwill, Wade and Shaq! 💪
I’m still a Kings fan because of the JWill era
This is an excellent interview!
Dope we get the video version!! Keep em coming!! Love White Chocolate! The amount of times I've tried to recreate that elbow pass and failed lmaooo and he was a big part of that 06 Heat chip!! Let's go Miami!!
If you watch him do it, he actually skips on one leg 🦵 while doing it.
Great interview!

Jason Williams and Nate Diaz need to hang out
No respect for Jwill, honestly he sucked at being an effective and efficient ball player. OVERRATED
True, but maybe he never got the ideal situation for his talents.
Man, that elbow pass alone deservws respect😁
