Williams is a long and thin wing with good upside. He can slash in between defenders and score with his length and excellent body control. He runs the floor extremely well and can finish at the rim with a clear path. Williams can make mid range jumpers off the catch or dribble and can make an open three with much needed time and space mostly due to his inconsistent release and follow through. Williams has a good first step along the baseline but must learn how to jump stop because he has a tendency to pick up charging fouls. He handles and passes pretty well on the move in draw and kick situations as well. At times during the game he will disappear for periods of time but he does have some talent. Williams needs to add strength as soon as possible but he could be a nice small forward in college if he continues to improve.

Looks like a kid that is waiting for high major offers. We need kids that want to be here.
Possibly. Not sure... I couldn't unearth a lot when I was hunting Google on him. However, most kids want those major offers and this summer AAU season is where they'll get them -- if they do.
 
Williams should have plenty of opportunity to make up for the lost time. Already, he has offers from Bradley, Fairfield, Southern Methodist and Southern Illinois. There also are a number of high-majors, including Arizona, DePaul, Illinois and Iowa, keeping an eye on him.

Additionally, we're no longer listed as being an offer for him. Removing that designation.
