Strengths:
Williams is a point guard prospect that coaches and scouts are very excited about due to his huge upside. He finishes in the paint at a great rate thanks to his size and strength. He’s fearless when attacking the rim and will surprise defenders with his athleticism. He’s an effective shooter off the dribble and from mid-range. He’s a better free throw shooter than his percentage suggests, shot 78% from the previous season. He has an outstanding handle with either hand and is a very good passer. He knows how to feed his teammates and always places the ball exactly where they want it thanks to his outstanding court vision and feel for the game. He rebounds the ball at a decent rate for a point guard. Is a good perimeter defender thanks to his strength and high basketball IQ.
Weaknesses:
Not the quickest player and could have problems staying in front of the elite point guards in the league. He won’t create turnovers, because he doesn’t risk his defensive position to jump passing lanes. His outside shooting isn’t consistent yet, but he should develop three-point range in time.
