Because Williams made his NBA debut during the lockout-shortened season, the 21-year-old had a difficult transition and was forced to learn on the fly. Summer league was canceled, training camp was shortened and practice time was limited. 明尼蘇達灰狼的前鋒Derrick Williams在菜鳥年並未打出代表作。主要是他初登場的這季，是個縮水賽季。對於21歲的年輕人來說，這是個很艱困的過渡期，且又是他正要學著如何躍進式成長的時刻。 Despite these strange circumstances, the second overall pick in the 2011 NBA Draft still managed to emerge as a significant contributor for the Timberwolves, playing in all 66 games and averaging 8.8 points and 4.7 rebounds. 以去年選秀榜眼進入灰狼的他來說，儘管上個賽季是很特殊的情況，但他依舊能在灰狼隊上做出很大的貢獻，平均每場得8.8分和4.7個籃板。 However, Williams was disappointed in his rookie campaign. Now, entering his second season, he’s hoping to be more effective and take on a bigger role with the Timberwolves. 然而，他本人對他菜鳥年的表現倒是很失望。現在，要邁入他職涯第二年了，他希望能在灰狼陣中發揮更有效率，並能提供更大的貢獻。 “I’m not happy with myself,” Williams said to HOOPSWORLD. “I’m not happy with the way that I played last season. I’m just trying to get better each year. I worked really hard last season, but it wasn’t hard enough, I guess. Now, I’m trying to use last season as a stepping stone for this season.” "我很不滿意我自己"，D-Will這樣跟世界虎撲訪問者說，"我很不爽我上賽季在場上的表現方式，僅希望能試著一年比一年更好" “I’m trying to be more efficient this season,” Williams added. “I’m still missing some shots that I know I can make so now I just need to get back in the gym and work on it.” 他接著說:"我會嘗試在這賽季變得更有效率，我知道我在投籃上是有些可以改好的缺失，所以我現在首要的就是去健身房先找回身體狀態" Last season, Williams didn’t see the court as often as he would’ve liked, splitting minutes with veteran forward Michael Beasley and only starting 15 games. Now that Beasley has signed a three-year deal with the Phoenix Suns, Williams should receive more minutes and touches. He’s confident that he’ll be able to take on more responsibilities and produce alongside All-Star power forward Kevin Love. 上賽季，我們比較少能看到Williams在他熱愛的球場上，主要是因為他前面還有個老學長 Michael Beasley，他們兩個要分食場上的時間，在這情況下，他也只取得了15場先發。不過隨著Beasley轉去太陽並簽下3年約後，Williams這賽季在場上絕對會有更多的時間。他相信，他能與灰狼自家養出的明星球員凱文愛一起，分擔更多的責任，並成為與之比肩的明星球員。 “That was a big question when I got drafted – how was it going to work with myself, Michael Beasley and Kevin Love out there on the court?” Williams said. “Now, with Beasley gone, it’s just myself and K-Love out there and I think it’s going to work this season. It worked a little bit last season, but now we have a few more pieces that can really play.” "當我被灰狼選中後，有個很大的問題是:我在灰狼的場上，要如何去做好我的工作？畢竟有Michael Beasley和Kevin Love已足以縱橫全場了。" Williams 說: "現在，Beasley先拜離開了，只剩愛學長，而我想本賽季我要讓自己在場上更有作用才行，上賽季我能貢獻的事不多，但這賽季有較大的空間發揮，我在場上必須能做到更多事情" Williams is working hard to expand his game this offseason. He played in the Las Vegas Summer League, averaging 15.4 points and 5.2 rebounds in five games, and he’s focused on improving his mid-range jumper so that he can become more of a threat on the offensive end. 在休賽期裡，Williams倒是很努力地在拓展比賽時的能力。他參加了在賭城舉辦的夏季聯賽，5場比賽裡他場均能拿下15.4分和5.2個籃板，重點是他提升了自己的中距離跳投，這使他在進攻端的威脅度更增了。 “A lot of people know that I can go to the basket, but if I’m coming off of a screen or something like that, I need to be able to knock down that 15-footer consistently,” Williams said. “That’s what I’m trying to work on this summer.” Williams表示: "許多人都知道我能衝到籃下爭雄，但如果我碰到單擋或類似的東西時，我需要在15尺外也能持續做同樣一擊的事，這也是我在這個夏天努力嘗試做的事" Williams is also slimming down. He has already lost 18 pounds this offseason and he’s hoping to trim down a little bit more by the time the season starts. 休賽期間的Williams也進行減重計畫，目前他已經減少18磅，他希望球賽開始前能多少再減一些重量。 “I want to lose five more pounds,” Williams said. “I’m trying to get down to 225. Hopefully I get there. That’s my goal. Last season, I was at 248 pounds. I’ve just been dieting and working harder.” "我希望再減個5磅多"，Williams 說: "最好是到225磅左右，那是我的願望，也是我的減重目標。我上賽季是248磅，最近我一直在節食，也更加努力鍛鍊自己" The Timberwolves have been very active this offseason, bringing in a number of contributors who can help the team make a playoff push. Minnesota added Brandon Roy, Chase Budinger, Greg Stiemsma, Dante Cunningham and Alexey Shved. The team has also been linked to free agent forward Andrei Kirilenko. The Timberwolves are determined to make the playoffs for the first time since the 2003-04 season, and Williams believes it’s possible if everyone works hard and shows improvement. 在這個休賽期間，灰狼的動作倒是頻頻，他們一直在找尋能把球隊推入季後賽的關鍵貢獻者。陸續增加了Brandon Roy、火箭轉來的布丁狗(Chase Budinger)、Greg Stiemsma、 Dante Cunningham 和 Alexey Shved。此外，灰狼更從自由球員市場中找來了前阿爵的明星球員AK，種種補強跡象顯示了灰狼今年想自03-04賽季後首次重返季後賽的決心。 D-Will相信只要每個成員夠努力，而且進步的成果能明顯展示出來，那新的賽季就很可能重返季後賽。 “That’s what it’s all about, trying to make the playoffs this season,” Williams said. “I think a lot of that has to do with individuals getting better in the offseason, like myself.” 他說:"這就是球隊目前努力的全部，嘗試讓大家一起進季後賽。我想我們隊員中很多人都跟我一樣，試圖在休賽期間增進更多事，讓球隊更好" With a full season under his belt, a normal training camp around the corner and a defined role going forward, Williams is hoping for a breakout sophomore season and a playoff berth for the Timberwolves. 展望下一個終於完整的賽季，他有出頭天的時候，以及在正常的訓練營裡他的定位明確下，相信Williams將會在第二個賽季有所突破，更會是灰狼隊重返季後賽的希望。 (本文完。原文後面還有阿拓 Leonard的介紹,有興趣者也可看看) --
