Marcus Williams was back in action Thursday, just two days after spraining his left wrist. Still a bit sore, Williams scrimmaged and said he's ready to play Friday night against Philly. That won't happen, but the Nets are both surprised and happy to have their rookie point guard back. Meanwhile, a report out of Massachusetts suggests that the Celts nearly took Williams at #21 on Draft Night, picking Rajon Rondo instead.
