'''Maurice "Mo" Williams''' (born [[December 19]] [[1982]], in [[Jackson, Mississippi]]) is an [[United States|American]] professional [[basketball]] player who currently is a free agent for the [[National Basketball Association|NBA]]'s [[Milwaukee Bucks]]. He is a 6'1" [[point guard]] from the [[University of Alabama]].

== Rationale ==

The [[List of Registered Historic Places in Jackson County, Oregon]] has a link for the [[Dead Indian Soda Springs Shelter]]. This small building is not spectacular enough (in my POV) to merit it's own page, but if it was included with the Soda Springs article... Basically my hopes for this page is for it to be about both the springs and the shelter. [[User:ZabMilenko|Zab]] 03:44, 6 May 2007 (UTC)

:Yes, that makes sense. Sure a weird name for a place... Cheers! [[User:Katr67|Katr67]] 02:41, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

== PicturesNBA career ==

=== Utah Jazz ===

Williams was selected by the [[Utah Jazz]] in the second round of the [[2003 NBA Draft]]. He averaged five points and 1.3 assists for the Jazz in his first NBA season, then signed as a [[free agent]] with the Milwaukee Bucks.

Sorry for the darkness of the pictures. The digital camera just would not cooperate with the lighting. I took a few shots with the 35mm that may be alot nicer, and I will return with an update when they have developed. As for info on the shelter, that seems to be incredibly hard to find...

Filling in for Bucks' injured starting point guard [[T.J. Ford]], Williams averaged 10.2 points and 6.1 assists during the [[2004-05 NBA season|2004-05 season]]. In his new role coming off of the bench for the up-and-coming Bucks team, he showed a knack for clutch plays, making several game winning shots in the [[2005-06 NBA season|2005-06 season]]. Maurice has 2 sisters, Hot Jenny and Cathy. 1 1.{{Fact|date=July 2007}}

In the 2006 off-season the Bucks traded T.J. Ford to the [[Toronto Raptors]] for [[power forward (basketball)|power forward]] [[Charlie Villanueva]]. This opened up a position in the starting lineup for Williams. In the first 19 games of the [[2006-07 NBA season|2006-07 season]] Williams averaged 15.6 points, 5.1 rebounds and 6.2 assists in nearly 35 minutes per game. These averages were all career highs.

:Unfortunately, the 35mm was much worse. In a few weeks I will travel out there during late afternoon and see if the light plays better tricks in there. [[User:ZabMilenko|Zab]] 01:34, 26 May 2007 (UTC)

On December 20, 2006 vs. the [[Miami Heat]], Williams recorded his first career [[triple-double]] with 19 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists.<ref>http://sports.espn.go.com/nba/recap?gameId=261220015</ref>
