WOMEN'S VOLLEYBALLAT VIRGINIA

VCU senior forward Vince Williams was drafted by the Memphis Grizzlies with the No. 47 overall pick in the NBA draft signing a two-way contract, according to the NBA.

Williams will play for the Memphis Hustle in the NBA’s minor league, the G League, as a part of his two-way contract, according to the NBA. Brady Klopfer, a writer for Golden State’s SportsBlogs Nation, stated how two-way contracts work in an article.

“When not playing, two-way contracts can still practice with the team, travel with the team, and sit on the bench during games as an inactive member of the team,” Klopfer stated. “They can also spend time on the team’s G League affiliate.”

The 6-foot-6-inch forward out of Toledo, Ohio led the Rams in scoring and rebounding as a senior, while being named to the All-Atlantic 10

Mariners writer Max Ellingsen raved about Locklear’s future with the team, specifically when it came to batting in an article.
