He revealed that his professionalism kicked in and he wanted to tell his coach the truth, sit out the game and deal with his suspension later. However, Rivers had a different idea in his mind.

"So I walk up to Doc Rivers, I say, ‘Doc I’mma tell you the truth.' Me and Doc had this kind of relationship. I said, ‘Doc, I’mma tell you the truth I’m drunk as f***. I’m f***** up. I went too far. I’m sorry. I don’t think I can do this," Williams said. (51:30)

After confessing the truth, Rivers played the former Clippers guard the entire second quarter and told him to sweat out the alcohol out of his system as he would need him in the fourth quarter. Williams did exactly as his coach instructed and went on to score 15 points in the fourth quarter to lead the Clippers to victory.
