The 6-foot-2 lead guard plays with good pace and control, has really improved his shooting efficiency to be a true 3-level scorer, and is a pesky defender that impacts his opponents on or off the ball. Willis, along with fellow senior Gavin Christian (mentioned above), have come out the gates swinging and putting up great numbers to lead the Spartans to a 3-0 start. Willis opened up the season going for 25 points and 5 steals, followed by 20 points, 7 rebounds, and 4 assists; and 17 points and 3 steals in the last two games respectively. Willis keeps the ball on a string, uses the crossover, spin-move, behind-cross, and hesitation to create space from his defender, has one of the best stop-and-pop mid-range jumpers in the Section with good lift and body control, has a great burst of speed off the bounce, and is a creative scorer around the basket with the Euro-step and reverse lay-ups, as well as the physicality to score through contact at the basket. Willis moves fluidly off the ball, is effective with the 3-ball off the dribble or the catch, is a good positional rebounder that looks to push the pace of play, and has the court vision to make tight reads off the drive and kick pass or finding teammates up the court off the glass. Willis has shown growth in his footspeed, lateral quickness, and quick/active hands to poke the ball out, jump passing lanes, or rip the ball from his opponent, which allows him to get out in the open court. Willis has been the driving force for the Spartans engine so far and his level of play and consistent shot making will be imperative for South Bakersfield to make a run at a league and Section title.
