Highly skilled high post scorer who uses his strength and physicality to create advantages. Owns a polished jumper and a smooth mid range package, with the ability to rise over defenders off the pull up. Finishes through contact and remains a reliable catch and shoot threat from deep, giving him multiple ways to score.

Williams has everything you look for in a #1 overall prospect nationally.  Positional size on the wing, elite athleticism, and a mindset to want to be the best.  He had a dominant first half in their morning contest as the 2028 prospect was playing up on 17U.  Feathery shot from beyond the arc.  Also shot faked into and-1s on straight line takes to the cup.  Liked how aggressive, but under control he was with the ball in his hands.  Got to the line at a nice clip.  Rebounds well for a wing and is a big time perimeter defender with his mentality along with his physical gifts.  Also a nice connective passer who makes solid reads with the rock.  He had 32 points (8-15 FG) (3-7 3PT) (13-13 FT), 7 rebounds, and 2 assists.

It is very clear why Williams is considered the top prospect nationally in the Class of 2028. His size and physicality pop even while playing up at the 17u level. He was consistently able to play through contact, make defenders bounce off of him, and score from all three levels in a win for CP3. Williams finished with an impressive 32 points on 8-15, 3-7, 13-13 shooting splits. There aren’t mean rising juniors who could make the transition to high-major basketball tomorrow, but Williams would look just fine at the highest levels of college basketball right now now.

The question with Williams’ game is: “what can’t he do?” The 6-foot-8 wing/forward is in the running for most physical and explosive athlete in the country, has a dribble, pass and shoot skill-set and has potential to be an elite perimeter defender and positional rebounder. Williams is a high-flying transition finisher, rhythm jump shooter in the mid-range and a quick-twitch face-up driver and finisher. His best performance of the weekend came on a 23-point, 12-rebound effort in a win over Team United.

Williams is regarded as the number one national prospect on a few other national rankings websites and for good reason. The wing is a knockdown shooter with the positional size and athleticism to be an impact defender and slasher. I caught Williams at Session I of EYBL and he stood out with his two way impact, perimeter shot-making and efficiency. Williams certainly looks the part of a five star, top ranked player in the country with his frame, athleticism and perimeter shooting and will be a prospect top programs in the country fight for on the recruiting trail.

One of the nation’s top players in the sophomore class, Williams did nothing but solidify his stock, averaging 25 points per game in Atlanta while leading the Stars to a 4-0 record. A three level scorer with size, length, and strength, he combines high level athleticism with consistent production and an ability to create his own offense. He rebounds his position, defends multiple spots, and plays with a high level of confidence, making him one of the most impactful prospects in the class.

One of the top national prospects in the 2028 class, Williams was one of the best players in the gym on Sunday. Williams projects as a potential two-way wing who can knock down shots off the catch and create offense for himself, one of the more valuable archetypes in modern basketball. On Sunday, Williams had maybe the highlight of the day when he jab-stepped one way then attacked going left on the right side of the rim before quickly exploding for a monster slam dunk. Shortly after, Williams used a fake pass to get open and hit a 3-pointer. Georgia’s 2028 class is stacked and Williams is at the top of the list.

Different. That’s the word that keeps coming up with AJ Williams AJ Williams 6'7" | SF Eagle's Landing Christian | 2027 GA —and it’s backed by everything: production, rankings, and presence. The No. 1 player in the country in the Class of 2028 (across multiple major outlets) , Williams isn’t just hype—he’s delivering at a ridiculous level. He put up 31 points and nearly 13 rebounds per game this season and has dropped monster outings like 50 points, 18 boards in a single game. At 6-7 with length and fluidity, Williams plays like a guard in a forward’s body. He’s super smooth off the bounce, creating his own shot with ease and scoring at all three levels. The mid-range is advanced, the handle is tight, and he’s comfortable rising up over defenders or getting downhill and finishing through contact. What separates him from most elite scorers is the versatility. He can initiate offense, make reads out of pick-and-roll, and create for others—not just hunt shots. He’s shown that ability on the national stage as well, including USA Basketball mini-camp exposure and EYBL play with the Georgia Stars . Defensively, the tools are all there. Length, timing, and rebounding instincts make him impactful on the glass and disruptive across multiple positions. He’s not just putting up numbers—he’s affecting the game everywhere. And maybe the most telling piece: the moment doesn’t faze him. Big stage, big expectations—he produces anyway. Williams isn’t just the best sophomore in the country—he’s tracking toward being one of the next names out of Georgia to carry real national, high-major star power.

One of the nation’s top prospects in the 2028 class, Williams had a dominant season at ELCA, averaging over 30 points per game. A true three-level scorer, he combines size, length, strength, and high-level athleticism to create matchup problems across the board. He can score off the dribble, finish through contact, and knock down perimeter shots with consistency. Beyond his scoring, Williams rebounds for his position, defends multiple spots, and plays with a high level of confidence and competitiveness. His all-around production and physical tools make him one of the most complete and impactful prospects in his class.

In a matchup featuring two of the nation’s top prospects, Williams’ Chargers came up short, but the sophomore wing delivered the most impressive performance of the day, pouring in 32 points in defeat. The 6-foot-7 wing scored at all three levels and was often forced to generate offense on his own, consistently carrying the load. More than just a scorer, Williams showed willingness and vision as a passer, further reinforcing why he looks every bit the part of one of the top prospects in the country.
