On Wednesday, the professional basketball team KTP-Basket of Finland announced that they have signed former UCF shooting guard Matt Williams.

KTP-Basket head coach Tomi Kami is excited about his decision, according to the team's official website.

In an article posted on the official website, the team's head coach spoke highly of Williams admitting KTP-Basket was "in the right place at the right time and there was a good fortune."

Kotkan Työväen Palloilijat Basket, shortly KTP Basket, is the largest independent basketball team of Kotkan Työväen Palloilijat, a Finnish sports club based in Kotka, and has played in the Korisliiga since 1957.

Williams, who spent the past season with the Miami Heat, started 36 games and averaged 15.1 points per game as a senior for the Knights. The three-point specialist holds the school records for most three-point field goals made in a career (274), in a season (126) and in a single game (11).

During his time with the Miami Heat, Williams appeared in three NBA games playing a total of 11 minutes. Playing under a two-way contract, most of his time with the Heat was spent in the G-League as a member of the Sioux Falls Skyforce, where he averaged 10.2 points in 43 games. Williams was waived on New Year's Ever and the Heat later signed guard Derrick Jones Jr.

Williams will arrive in Finland next Tuesday, per the official release. Williams will play for the first time on Friday, Sept. 28th, when KTP meets in the training session at Uusikaupunki Korihait, according to the team's website.
