The agent for Charlotte Hornets center Mark Williams disputes his client’s failed physical with the Los Angeles Lakers, claiming the decision isn’t consistent with the opinions of several medical professionals.
“The overwhelming sentiment, after conferring with multiple, nationally recognized doctors, is that the Los Angeles Lakers should not have failed Mark Williams on his physical,” Jeff Schwartz of Excel Sports Management said in the statement obtained by ESPN’s Dave McMenamin.
Schwartz added: “Mark was ready and able to play for them and should have been given that opportunity.”
