The Deron Williams Celebrity Dodge Barrage Dodgeball Tournament was held at the Frisco Fieldhouse in Frisco, Texas on Saturday, September 10th, 2016.
Williams, a Dallas Maverick, hosted the tournament to benefit his Point of Hope Foundation which supports autism awareness, education and research. Williams is the father of a son with autism.
Williams convinced his Mavs teammates, along with head coach Rick Carlisle, to field a team and dress as grannies (GWA – Grannies With Attitudes) for the event.
Dallas Dodgeball contributed two teams to the tournament, Killshot and Bawlz Deep. Bawlz Deep claimed the championship after teammate Juan Sosa finished off a GWA player in a thrilling one-on-one showdown.
