Williams didn’t build on his stock in year two, but he still projects as an elite defensive prospect at the five. Standing 6-foot-10 with a 7-foot-5 wingspan, he’s a mobile athlete with the ability to switch onto the perimeter and reject shots at a high clip.

Adding to his offensive game will be Williams’ primary focus, but he’s already capable of doing damage as a rim-running big who can catch lobs with ease. He played out of position at A&M, so NBA spacing should open up his game in new ways.

One of the biggest points of emphasis for Williams at the next level will be his shooting. He showed flashes during his freshman campaign, but didn’t really improve last season. His clunky release will need some work, but it’d be highly beneficial for him to add some range to his game.
