Williams was granted bail Tuesday by the Pennsylvania Supreme Court, according to CNN.

He arrived in time for Game 5 and rang the ceremonial bell while donning Joel Embiid's jersey.

The Sixers have been supportive of Williams, with Rubin and players making multiple trips to see him in jail. With a 3-1 lead, Philadelphia has a chance to close out its first-round series against the Heat.
