Lady Vols star says yes to Hawks rookie
Hawks forward Shelden Williams didn't make the NBA's All-Rookie team,
announced late last week. But he does have reason to celebrate. The former
Duke All-American is engaged to another member of college basketball royalty,
Tennessee All-American Candace Parker.
Williams popped the question shortly after the Hawks' season ended, capping a
whirlwind year that saw him graduate from Duke, get drafted with the fifth
pick of last summer's NBA draft and wrap up his first NBA season with Rookie
of the Month honors for April.
Parker and her Lady Vols teammates won the NCAA title April 3, with Williams
in attendance in Cleveland.
"We got engaged on the 21st of April," Williams said. "We're still looking at
it [the calendar] before we set a [wedding] date. We're hoping for sometime
next year."
