JYD is yet another played to have done a dollop of acting in his time. He appeared in two episodes of "Sue Thomas, F.B.Eye" in 2004, a show about a dead lipreading FBI agent, back when his basketball career was still in full flight. Here's the titles to that seminal smash.
When not acting in cancelled Canadian detective serials, Williams works for his beloved Toronto Raptors as a community ambassador. He also runs his own broadband network, JYD TV, has a custom car shop, and appeared in the film "Harold & Kumar Visit White Castle". Don't know what role he played, but I'm not watching it to find out.
