Jason Williams came out of his brief retirement to play with the Magic this season, but almost all of the flash that earned him the nickname “White Chocolate” is gone. He’ll still whip out a nasty crossover or no-look pass every once in awhile, but early in his career, he was pretty easily the flashiest player in the league.
