ColorBlind: The Jason Williams Documentary 

Shout-out to everyone who has showed this project love! (including J-Will himself) It was an honor to help tell the story of one of my favorites and dive into his impact on the game.⚪🍫

JWill and CWebb one of the most underrated dynamic duos in NBA history IMO.

Im 39 years old . I grew up throughout my high school years watching Jason Williams. I lived on the east coast and TNT had the Sacramento Kings on all the time . I’ll never forget watching him for the first time . I played point guard in high school but i was a scorer . I would shoot 25-30 shots a game . I was averaging 25 points . After my sophomore season entering my junior year something clicked inside me after watching a game when Jason had 13 assist . That entire summer i would take a basketball and not shoot 1 shot . I never went to a basketball court all summer . We had a county court house and it has about 50 steps . For 5-6 hrs a day all i did was up and down non stop . Rain or shine dribbling . By the time the summer was over my ball control and dribbling was totally next level . I couldn’t wait for basketball season to start . Our very first practice i brought the ball up left handed (i was a always right hand dominate dribbler ) crossed over and instead of pulling up i threw a laser down to my forward . After about 5 trips up the court and 5 assist with no shots coach pulled me aside and said to me when did become a complete player . I went on to have a school record 23 assist in 1 game breaking the previous record of 12 . I owe a lot of my playing achievements to seeing Jason Williams . He put a passion in me to get better overall and not be just one dimensional.

Every kid in America that hooped tried that elbow pass the next day💯

The elbow pass, that’s all I got to say... White Chocolate, will always be a legend! ✌🏾

Love 55. He’s deserves a lot more respect as a facilitator than he gets.

Grew up watching him in Memphis. City of 70% black folks and we LOVED that man like he was our cousin or something. Broke the color barrier for me early. 🧡

The thing JWill never gets credit for which made him such a nightmare to opposing players was his speed. He was incredibly fast and could penetrate past anyone with the ball in complete control. That gave him so many options- pass, shoot, whatever. Unless you watch full games now, it's hard to appreciate this other insane gift of his from just the highlights. @Trice- Well done on the documentary. You nailed it when you said his greatest contribution to the game was how it made fans feel when watching him. He was pure joy to watch.

The importance of having a great passer on your team.. this dude made a huge difference on every team

Interesting that every bad team he went to became good enough to make the playoffs.

The year before Sac drafted him they only had 4 nationally televised games. His rookie year they were scheduled for only 5 but when his popularity took off networks scrambled to get him on tv more. His third year in Sac the only team with more nationally televised games (27) was the Lakers. Throughout his entire career he was in the NBA's Top 10 most popular list. The Kings and Heat set attendance records every year he was with them. Ratings for their games almost doubled. The amount of revenue he produced for the NBA as a whole is stunning and yet he never got his due. He's one of my favorite players of all time and I'm blessed to have been able to see him live. I'm happy he got himself a Championship, he certainly deserved it.

This is beautiful. Im glad to see J-Will get credit for how revolutionary he was.

White chocolate brought that ABA game to NBA with style mad props

Good in depth vid on white chocolate..as a young black man he was our white iverson😂

OG Country boy.. Gotta love J williams & randy moss's west Virginia accents!

He was so respected by everybody, no race BS, dude was just good. Even black kids was pretending to be him on the court. If I wasn’t so broke as a kid I would of got his and AI jerseys. Much respect for this video 👍🏾

As someone who grew up watching late 80s and the 90s ballers, I loved watching the Reign Man, The Glove, The Human Highlight Reel, Vinsanity, Air Jordan, The Answer... But White Chocolate? Man, I tuned into SportsCenter EVERY morning to see what J-Dub did last night! Loved watching him play. Eternally underrated. One of my all-time faves! Much love and respect to him. In my book, an all-time great 🙏

crazy. i watched his entire career. i grew up watching jordan. when jordan retired i felt such a void. j will filled that whole void and i was such a massive fan. his game was so underrated. his assist to turnover ratio was always top in the league. the narrative of careless with the ball was so media driven. im from mississippi, and when the Grizz moved to memphis, they had a meet and greet in jackson. I showed up in a J Will jersey and he wasnt there. i was so sad lol. I eventually got to meet him when i worked for nba tv. i pitched that he show up on Area 21 with KG and they actually did it. it hit big for the channel. i met him and talked to him. it was so fire.

White Chocolate is the real deal, and this coming from a die hard Lakers fan since 86...

I grew up in Sac and he definitely put some asses in seats at Arco arena. Love this guy.

Hands down one of the best point guards to ever play. It’s cause of “White Chocolate” I became a Kings fan. Thanks Jason for greatness you displayed on the court. Be well bro.

I'm from west virginia and this guy's a hoop legend in these parts

A true BALLA, highly respected by opponents, peers, and Basketball fans from all walks of life.

J Williams is one of the best examples of don’t judge a book by its cover. One of the best and most creative playmakers to play the game.

Not just the most exciting,also the most skillful player....the kid is full of skills 👍🏾👍🏾

His career almost ruined for smoking weed. What an absolute joke the “drug war” has been😢. Saw him many times at Arco arena in Sac...he’s a legend👍

I’m from West Virginia and Jason, Randy Moss, Bimbo Coles and Jerry West were all great athletes. GO MARSHALL!!!

Jason Williams was having troubles with his shooting percentage so he simply started passing the ball to the hoop what a legend

There are numbers & statistics and then there is passion & lasting influence... Congratulations for this documentary man.

This guy could ball!He was so reminiscent of Pistol Pete.I'm so glad he had got his ring.His impact on the game,merits him.being in the HOF in my opinion

Some guys just play at a different level. He was so much fun to watch even if he was destroying your favorite teams. As the late Stuart Scott would say "You can't stop him. You can only hope to contain him."

One of my favorite players growing up. I'm a Blazers fan and while the Elbow Pass is legendary, the one play that really stands out to me was during a Blazers vs Kings game in Sacramento where he pulled up (without hesitation) and hit a 3 pointer that was maybe 4 or 5 feet beyond the the 3 point arch- which was a "bad shot" back in those days. This was either the 99-00 or 00-01 season... so more than a DECADE before Steph Curry and Dame made it normal to hit deep threes way beyond the arch.

He made basketball so much fun to watch.

yeah. finally someone sum up jwill's whole career in a balance and positive vibes. great to watch, brother. 🍻

My favorite player to watch ever. Loved the free flowing magic to his game.

Imagine JWill playing for D’Antoni in his system… dude would have been even more legendary. People these days go on and on about Kyrie’s wizardry with the basketball and forget that there were guys like this who were just as spectacular back in the day. Definitely one of the most exciting players ever. That SAC offense was beautiful to watch.

I forgot how slick this dude was. That elbow pass though.

INSTANT LIKE FOR PLAYING WU TANG

To me passing is more difficult and more important than scoring. Good passing teams are always winners.

He has to be one of the most complete and best players of anticipation with success behind it. Jay will is definitely a living highlight reel! He was a nightmare for a lot of people that faced him. So glad he got a ring out of it 🏆 /#55/

This guy was electric. I was lucky enough to watch him live in a game at MSG

Basketball genius, creative & spectacular , love his game

i remember 99 working at a tv repair shop as delivery driver me and my boy would watch sportcenter all day on the tvs that were repaired to test them watched so much kobe and williams great time in my life responsibility level so low great video thanks

Dope documentary. Well done. Jason Williams is one of the most underrated players in NBA history. Very humble dude too. As an 80’s baby from NYC growing up a basketball junkie…white chocolate had a profound impact on the styles of players here and everywhere.

There are countless players that have won a championship and are now forgotten. Williams did indeed leave a legacy for this one simple reason. He was a special talent.

never knew jason williams was such a legend , great video man keep it up!

I remembering watching him and wondering why he didn't get more props because he was one hell of a baller and one of the best passers for his time

Ill never forget sitting 13 rows up from the floor at arco arena, my Dad and Uncle sitting beside me, all of us nervous as hell as the kings were on the cusp of a deep pkayoff run when JWill stole the ball and ran down and made his 1st NBA dunk. That arena erupted. It was absolute chaos after that dunk. People lost their minds. I will never forget it as long as I live. Greatest Kings moment of all time for me.

Williams/Moss couldnt be stopped. All of us in WV Appalachia were rooting for those good ol boys. Very cool times.

This man was not only a baller but a winner. No matter the team, he was in the postseason. Much respect. We are colorblind.

White Chocolate was one of the most soulful players I ever seen in the nba ❤️

My two favorite players Jason Williams and Peja Stojokivic. That Kings team got me into basketball. Like the Mighty Ducks got me into hockey.

Truly deserving of a championship and the fact that every team he joined actually got good enough to make the playoffs. Glad I got to watch it growing up

Literally my favorite player of all time. Thank you for inspiring me when I was just 13....

If you didn’t witness this live as it was going on, you missed out...ESPN said 60% of the content requested by fans were for these Kings squads...

I was living in Gainesville, Florida when Jason came to play there, wow wow waza he was something to watch Showtime himself, he gave basketball both collegiate and professional a bit b shot and in my opinion he ranks in NBA top entertainers from earl monroe, pete maverick, Jason was the best and the game always needs a baller like him, much respect white chocolate!!!!!!!

Thank you J Will for decades of inspiration

Jay Will was the SHIT! Straight BUTTER on the court! Called White Chocolate with the UTMOST respect!

He was very nasty and talented just give him his credit and respect that he deserves because plenty of people got the business from him you name them 🙏🙏🙏🇯🇲🇯🇲🇯🇲💪💪💪

My guy been getting his flowers recently. On all the podcast. Great interviews

I watched Jason DESTROY Hoover in a high school ball game when I was a kid. He was literally levels above most ballers in WV. I still have my Williams jersey; may have to frame it one of these days.

J Will is the best Facilitator of all time #55 Watching from Philippines🇵🇭

Awe man that was an Amazing look back at one of the best no look passers I've ever seen " WHITE CHOCOLATE" JASON WILLIAMS. THANK YOU.

Loved his overall game and impact on the style of the NBA and the new version of point guard. Flashback to Maravich. He was fast and had incredible endurance which caused havoc to others defense. He ran and entire game. Thanks for letting us watch his greatness!

Top draw trice Fantastic video,. I'm 50 yrs old, and in the UK,it was really hard to see televised games in the UK through the late 80s to the naughties,hardly anything live,only 1 TV channel showed games back then,and although we had the pleasure of watching the passing of the torch from Jordan to Kobe,it was Jason Williams we all wanted to watch back then, especially in the UK he has a massive fan club here too. As the game started to be played above the rim and became much faster and about dunking etc,yawn.lol, Williams was like a throw back keeping the grace of passing and teamwork in the game so to speak. A true legend for sure,and great to see a small film pay tribute to him great work well done ✌🏻&❤️

Never knew he won a championship. Jason Williams is my all time favorite player!

This is now the J Will Doc that I’ll be showing the Lads..Loved it..Peace Mate✌️

J Will is the ultimate basketball player. Not in terms of stats or physical ability but in his ability to make you love watching the game. That’s how it should be.

JWill made the NBA more exciting to watch. There will never be another JASON WILLIAMS.

Might not be a hall of famer but definitely one of my favorite players ever. A legend in my eyes who made me wanna play with him with my created player on that Sacramento team!

As a laker fan those early 2000 kings were no joke

J Will deserves a Hall of Fame look. Boy was dope.

He may never be considered one of the greatest point guards, but he’s without a doubt one of if not the greatest passing point guards. He made passes people had never seen before and some that haven’t been seen since.

J will and the king's made me love basketball again. The way they played together and the way j will was so electric at pg, beautiful handles

Watching Jason Williams growing up was like popping the plastic on a brand new favorite CD. lol yes I said CD. He was different and exciting and in a league where MJ was now gone he was def needed

he should be in the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame!!!

Great job with this documentary my man ! I remember "white chocolate" and he was FANTASTIC to watch! Every game he left you saying : How did he do THAT and WOW! 😎

I'm black, and I saw him play. One of the baddest white boys that ever laced them up. He was Pete maravich reincarnated.

I was like "it's about damn time" when he got that chip in Miami 🤣🤣🤣🤣 Much deserved he put in the work and was a game changer

Cold-blooded on the court. A legend that I hope will get his spot in the hall of fame. 💯

Jason was one of the greatest that ever did it. He made the game exciting.

that 06 Heat team was the most random collection of players ever and they played so well together.

With that miami ring, his career is better than some of the ringless stars tbh. He made basketball fun to watch with his pass first mentality, fast pace play and all the dazzling acrobatic magic plays😁

#55 forever 💜 My favorite player of all time. Not because of winning or acoring the most points, its because he went out there and gabe it his all while putting on a show. It was an honor to watch this man play as a kid.

Jason was the only & 1 type of player who learned from his mistakes and succeeded.

People think I'm crazy for having him in my top 5 favorite players growing up

I just loved that he had a joy for the game.

From a Naive kid to A NBA Champion= GROWTH !

Im 42 years old. I grew up in the MJ era but there was only one NBA jersey I ever owned. J. Will’s. Much love!

Jason williams was so awesome to watch loved it really excited to watch the game when he was playing

The best ballhandler and passer that I have ever seen.

Dude was insanely jaw dropping. I can watch his highlights, all day.

I wanted to be like him so bad. Problem was I use to do the sickest behind the backs… straight to the other team or out of bounds.

Love Jason Williams..he’s one of my all time favorite players.

I felt in love with basketball watching the 05-06 Heat, mostly because of JWill and The Flash. But White Chocolate is my favorite player of all time to this day. What a legend!

Played so much ball in my childhood and he was an icon for a white point guard. And his legendary impact is the reason why I lead my high school team in turnovers lol

One of my the best point guard who ever played the game. J-will 💯

How can you not love this dude if you love ball. I remember.

As a Gator grad and a big fan of the Heat, I’ve followed his career closely. The word “anticipation” comes to mind when I think of JWill as every time he touched the ball you wondered what he was going to do that you’ve never seen before. The problem that he ran into in the mid part of his career is he would sometimes feel the need to make a fancy pass rather than a safe one, which led to the increase in turnovers, which you just can’t have as a point guard. He may never make the HOF, but he’ll be remembered forever for his flair and innovation.

Always sat down and turned the tv up, when Jason was on the court. Super cool watching what he might do.
