Williams’ season over

-

TROY WILLIAMS’ TRIAL this season is over.

The next time he’ll be with the Knicks will likely either be in Summer League or training camp.

The club announced Monday that Williams suffered a fractured jaw and is out for the season. The injury was sustained in the fourth quarter of Saturday’s loss to the Pistons, when the 23-year-old forward collided with Ishe Smith.

Williams impressed on consecutiv­e 10-day contracts with the Knicks before signing through next season on a partially guaranteed deal.

In 17 games with the Knicks, the athletic wing averaged 7.5 points and 3.5 rebounds while shooting 49 percent.

The Knicks (27-50), who are ninth in the lottery standings (one game behind Chicago), face the Orlando Magic on Tuesday.
