It only took Dallas Mavericks point guard Deron Williams 89 seconds before reaggravating his existing left abdominal strain Saturday evening in Game 4 against the visiting Oklahoma City Thunder.
As a result, the 31-year-old veteran was forced from the game and did not return.
Williams grimaced after hitting that table near his midsection 40 seconds into the game. He was basically done after that.

He wasn't in uniform for the Mavericks in Game 3 due to the injury, which the Mavericks wound up losing by 29 points.
Williams totaled 15 points and eight assists through the first two games of the series, where Oklahoma City holds a 2-1 lead.
