John "Hot Rod" Williams fighting for his life

Postby Andrew on Thu Dec 10, 2015 10:52 pm

Another former player from the 90s is battling poor health: John "Hot Rod" Williams.

Sad news out of Louisiana on Wednesday: John "Hot Rod" Williams, the 53-year-old former burly rebounder and shot-blocker who spent the bulk of his 13-year NBA career manning the middle for the Cleveland Cavaliers, is reportedly battling cancer and on life support in the intensive care ward of a hospital near Baton Rouge.
