Jason David Williams (born September 10, 1981) is an American former basketball player and television analyst. He played college basketball for the Duke Blue Devils and professionally for the Chicago Bulls in the National Basketball Association (NBA).
Then known as Jason Williams, he won the 2001 NCAA Championship with Duke, and was named NABC Player of the Year in 2001 and 2002. He was drafted second overall in the 2002 NBA draft by the Bulls. He was known as Jay on joining the Bulls to avoid confusion with two other players with similar names in the NBA at the time. His playing career was effectively ended by a motorcycle crash in 2003. He last played with the Austin Toros of the NBA Development League in 2006 when his season was ended early due to lingering physical effects from his accident.
Since retiring, Williams has worked as an analyst for ESPN. Initially working on ESPN College Basketball, he was reassigned to the NBA full-time with his addition on ESPN's NBA Countdown program in 2019.
