Will Conroy (born December 8, 1982 in Seattle, Washington) is an American professional basketball player. He is currently in the Italian league as the starting point guard with VidiVici Bologna.[1] He played briefly in the NBA.

Conroy attended Garfield High School in Seattle and the University of Washington. He played in the 2006-07 NBA preseason with the Charlotte Bobcats, but was cut before the regular season started. He then signed with the Tulsa 66ers of the NBA Development League. On January 30, 2007, Conroy was signed to a ten-day contract by the Memphis Grizzlies[2] after they had opened up a roster spot by waiving guard Eddie Jones.[3] After his contract ended, Conroy returned to the 66ers.[4] On February 28, 2007, Conroy was signed to another ten-day contract by the Los Angeles Clippers following point guard Shaun Livingston's season-ending knee injury. The team waived Von Wafer to make room on their roster for Conroy.[5] However, after averaging two assists in four games played, he was waived.[6] On April 6, he was re-signed by the Clippers, who made room on their roster by waiving Zeljko Rebraca.[7]

Conroy is the all-time assists leader in Washington Huskies history, with 515.[8]
