Hornets’ Mark Williams posted a monster double-double in the G League

Charlotte Hornets rookie Mark Williams registered his eighth double-double of the season in the NBA G League on Thursday and neared 30 points to lead the Greensboro Swarm to a win over the Ignite.

Williams produced 29 points, 17 rebounds, one assist and one steal in the 109-90 win during the G League Winter Showcase in Las Vegas, Nevada. He went 13-of-17 from the field and finished a game-high plus-28 in 28 minutes of work.

The 15th pick dominated in the paint throughout the contest on both ends of the floor. He hauled in seven offensive rebounds and was a constant lob threat after connecting with his teammates on a few alley-oops down low.
