2024 Fantasy Outlook
Williams' rookie campaign didn't exactly go to plan. He averaged 4.6 points, 2.3 rebounds and 1.2 assists on 32.3 percent shooting across 21.2 minutes in 50 games (21 starts), failing to generate fantasy appeal for the most part. The Jazz had the worst record in the NBA and were very generous with their minutes to young players, making it even more troubling that he wasn't able to break through. Now entering his second NBA season, things are looking up a bit for the wing. Williams looked much improved at the Summer League, posting averages of 17.1 points on 45.5 percent shooting from the field. The Jazz also cleared up some minutes, as they moved on from John Collins, Jordan Clarkson and Collin Sexton. Their big splash was the selection of Ace Bailey with the No. 5 overall pick, and the team also brought in Georges Niang and Jusuf Nurkic. Williams will have a chance to win the backup role behind Bailey at small forward, but the Jazz do have the ability to play smaller with someone like Lauri Markkanen at the three for stretches of the game. Despite an improved outlook for Williams, he still has a lot of work to do before managers in standard leagues should look his way. Read Past Outlooks

Personal Bio/PreCareer Summary

Born in San Luis Obispo, California, Williams attended Perry High School in Gilbert, Arizona after his family moved there while he was young. He was an extremely accomplished high school player, named Premier Region Player of the Year as a junior and winning the Class 6A state title. As a senior, he led his team to a 30-1 record and a second straight championship. The five-star recruit played in the 2023 McDonald's All-American Boys game and Nike Hoops Summit. Williams also participated in the 2023 FIBA Under-19 Basketball World Cup, playing for the United States team, coached by Colorado head coach Tad Boyle. Williams would go on to attend Colorado for college, where he was named to the Pac-12 All-Freshman Team in 2024. In 24 appearances (18 starts), the forward averaged 11.9 points, 3.0 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 28.1 minutes. Williams fits the coveted prototype of a lengthy, athletic wing. His explosiveness isn't jaw-dropping, but he can push the ball in transition and turn the corner on slower defenders in the halfcourt. His best offense comes when he can get a head of steam toward the rim and finish over rim protectors. If the defense commits too hard, he's capable of making the right passing read. On the other end of the court, Williams can make life tough for almost any offensive player and would most likely thrive in a switch-heavy scheme. He's lengthy and can move his feet. Like many young players of his skillset, he's thin, which can limit him on both sides of the ball, but NBA teams probably won't ask him to be a playmaker on offense or guard centers on defense. His shot is still somewhat of a question mark. He went 17-for-41 from deep (42%) but shot just 55-for-77 (71%) from the charity stripe. Williams' development track will depend a lot on his jumper and whether or not he can develop some more playmaking. If he can hit threes reliably, he'll fit the mold of numerous lengthy three-and-D wings around the Association. If the shot is unstable but he develops as a playmaker, there could be similarities to someone like Aaron Gordon. If both aspects develop, the ultimate ceiling may look something like Pascal Siakam. But as it stands, the reason teams should be interested in Williams is the high floor his defense and physical tools provide him. He could slot into almost any team construction and be valuable.

Sees big workload in loss
FUtah Jazz
January 15, 2026
Williams notched six points (3-6 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 0-2 FT), seven rebounds, two assists and two blocks in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 128-126 loss to the Bulls.
ANALYSIS
Despite a quiet night in terms of scoring, Williams was able to have a notable impact with his playmaking and defense. He was overshadowed by a career-best night from Brice Sensabaugh, however. Over his last seven games, Williams has posted averages of 8.0 points, 3.3 rebounds, 1.3 assists and 0.6 three-pointers in 22.1 minutes per contest.
