(Jayson) Williams also says he’s feeling great physically. He’s back down to his playing weight and looks like he could still bang on the blocks and grab a few rebounds. In fact, he says he has been schooling some up-and-comers in the NBA on and off the court. Which is why, even at the age of 44, he isn’t ruling out the possibility of attempting a comeback to the game he still loves.

Could you see yourself involved in the NBA again?

I take it one day at a time with my sobriety and whatever God has in store for me. If I start looking too far ahead then I’m gonna start controlling things. I don’t wanna do that no more. I want to be the employee and let God be the employer. I can tell you one thing: I can honestly say I’m in better shape than I ever was in life.

Are you fully recovered from your leg injuries?

Running like a sewing machine. Smooth.

So you’re saying you’re ready for a comeback?

[Laughing.] I’m ready for whatever God has in store for me.
