DWilliams to either Memphis State or Arizona

UPDATE: Adam Zagoria has an update on Derrick Williams' finalists:

...Despite my post earlier today that 6-7 forward Derrick Williams of La Mirada, Calif. will decide between Arizona and Memphis, Williams actually said his list includes several other teams.

“Memphis, Arizona, Arizona State, Gonzaga, Miami,” Williams, who is on an official to Memphis, wrote in a text. “I’m going to look over all my options and then decide.”

As for when he might decide, he said: “Anytime, probably during the first week of July...”
So no Nevada mention. At this point, we feel it necessary to add 'whatever that may or may not mean.'

It's never over until the young man shows up for the first day of class but, per Adam Zagoria (who is someone with a record of credibility), Derrick Williams is down to two college possibilities.
...Derrick Williams, a 6-foot-7 forward from La Mirada, Calif., is visiting Memphis and will choose either the Tigers or Arizona sometime after his visit ends Wednesday.

“It’s going good right now,” Williams told the Memphis Commercial-Appeal. “It’s a big difference from LA, but I could get used to it. I didn’t think the players were going to be how they are. They’re all pretty cool. They (play) up-tempo and they’re enthusiastic, so I like that too...”
Here's the Memphis Commercial Appeal article Zagoria notes.
