La noticia del despido de Joris Gnagnon por parte del Sevilla por falta de disciplina física no es una anomalía en el mundo del deporte. A pesar de la juventud del futbolista no es extraño ver casos de deportistas que olvidan su preparación y se abandonan poniendo en peligro carreras que apuntaban a lo más alto. Incluso en una liga tan profesional como la NBA existen precedentes como Charles Barkley, Eddy Curry o Mike Sweetney.

Although none like John Sam Williams.A powerful wing that ended his sports career in Spain and that is to date the only player in history that was suspended an entire season for his overweight problems.

The Los Angeles player, known as 'Hot Plate' ('Hot Plato'), became a reference name in American basketball in his university stage in the ranks of Lousiana State, the same university that years later would light anotherGiant legend: Shaquille O'Neal's.Williams spent two seasons in the ranks of the Tigers in which he averaged 15.8 points, 7.6 rebounds and 3.1 assists, which was enough to be chosen as number 12 of the 1986 draft -FrOME DAMPER WHERE I HAVE-for those then known as Washington Bullets.

Williams had everything to succeed in the NBA: height, quality, game vision...But when he came to the league, he was also accompanied by the depression and stress derived from the death of two childhood friends and his grandmother, his family's economic support.Now his mother, his grandfather and two of his brothers became dependent on him, which began to derive in an anxiety that mitigated with food.

In his first season in the League (9.2 points and 4.7 rebounds with 45% success in field shots) Williams showed that he had a hole in the elite and confirmed that trend during the following two courses (13.7 pointsand seven rebounds in his third campaign), making his name sound even to be part of the NBA All Star.However, despite his good performances on the court, the Bullet player began to demonstrate his problems with the scale, although always controlled.

Williams had settled as one of the best interiors of the League and in his fourth campaign he went straight to the Star Parts as their 18.2 points and 7.6 rebounds demonstrated.However, when he had barely played 18 regular league games, his knee said enough to completely and partially and partially the cross ligament ligament, the cross ligament.An injury that would be the beginning of the end for a Williams that failed to overcome the bump.

Premiums to lose weight

Without basketball Williams began to take refuge in food.A cave in which he ended up hiding completely when his father suffered an infarction an episode that caused Williams to stop attending rehabilitation.Thus, when he returned to the Bullet Training Center his weight was above 127 kilos.A weight that no longer lowered despite the economic bonus (200.000 dollars) that the team put on the table as an incentive to help you lose weight.

In the 90-91 Williams season he barely played 33 games with the bullets in which he cost him more and more to jump and run the court.And there was still the worst.

Williams appeared on the training campus of the capital team with a weight above 137 kilos.Too much for the Bullets, who decided to suspend the player throughout the season in a unique measure in NBA's history.The Bullets put the limit in 118, a figure that never arrived and that caused his departure to the clippers after the player's representative asked for the transfer and even threatened the team with taking him to the courts.

After his departure from Washington, he spent two seasons in Los Angeles before luggage and set up to the Pacers, where he played his last 34 games in his NBA career.

Spain, its latest refuge

Although the physicist did not accompany Williams maintained his intact class and his basketball convinced the directive and the coaching staff of Covirán Granada, where he soon became one of the favorite of the fans.After a season on Nasrid land, he tried luck at the TDK Manresa before he was for two seasons in Valladolid, where he showed his best face in Spain.

Pucela changed to Alicante, where he could barely play a game for injury and finished his sports career in the city of Huelva, where he hung his boots with 38 years and the shadow of the doubt about his wide backs.How far would I have arrived with a more careful physique?
