Criminal charges against Las Vegas Aces guard Riquna Williams were dropped this week, more than a month after she was arrested following an allegation of domestic violence, The Associated Press confirmed.

The incident occured at Williams' home July 25. 

Williams' wife, the alleged victim, reportedly stopped cooperating with prosecutors prior to a preliminary hearing that would have determined whether the case would move forward to trial.

Attorney Brandon Albright, who represents Williams, said his client is seeking to rejoin the Aces for the WBNA playoffs.

"It's our hope that, in short order, she'll be able to join her team," Albright said.

Williams did not speak in court and declined outside court to comment.

The 33-year-old WNBA champion who also goes by the nickname "Bay Bay" was an All-Star in 2015 and was named the league's Sixth Woman of the Year in 2013. She has been sidelined with an injury this season and has been away from the team since her arrest.

Outside the courtroom, Albright said Williams was "cleared physically to be on the court, and this case was the final hurdle to allow her to rejoin her teammates." 

Albright mentioned that Williams was continuing treatment for "a mental health disorder," but he cited privacy rights and declined to specify any diagnosis.
