College:
Wake Forest
Class: Senior
Stats:
http://sports.espn.go.com/ncb/player/profile?playerId=11799
Height: 6’9”
Weight: 280lbs
Accolades:
Honorable Mention All-American (05), Second Team All-ACC (05)
Scouting Report:
A big body who loves to bang down low. Can get and hold great post
position. Once he gets the ball down low it is almost always an easy
score or a foul. Isn’t overly mobile and has no game outside the paint.
Strengths:
Size – he has a huge body that allows him to get great post
position. Also draws tons of fouls. Decent shot blocker and steals a
few balls also.
Weaknesses:
Lacks mobility due to his huge size. Doesn’t have a face up game and
will struggle guarding quick NBA post players. Horrendous free throw
shooter, which is compounded by the fact that he draws a lot of fouls.
Too short to play center in the NBA.
Projected 2006 Draft
Range: late
second round - undrafted
Consensus:
Williams’ strength and
ability to score in the paint will get him a look. However his lack of
height, combined with his bulk, leaves him without a true NBA position
to play. He does have long arms however, and if he slims down a bit (or
increases his mobility) he may get a chance in the pros.
