Williams capped off a stellar career with a District Championship and some high-level postseason play. The 6’1″ PG can score in a variety of ways. He has the speed and quickness to attack the basketball and finish around the rim, and he is also a tremendous shooter from behind the arc. Williams notched 21 points in a win over Glades Central and followed that up with a 26 point performance in a win over Gateway Charter in the District Championship.

Williams coming off an impressive performance in the COP 3-point contest, where he recorded a score of 21 earning him 3rd place, continued his hot shooting throughout the Holiday tournament. He recorded multiple 20 point games and was a catalyst for his Vikings squad night in and night out. Williams handles the ball very well and can stop on a dime and knock down the jumper in the defenders face, but is also lethal from behind the arc if you give him any space, making him very difficult to defend

The transfer from ECS has been a huge addition to this revamped Vikings squad.

He recorded multiple 20+ point games this year, and scored in double-figures in every contest. He is a true 3-level scorer who averaged over 20 points a game this season, and is a guy who can score in bunches. Williams is a fast, shifty guard who has a great mid-range game but is also very effective at getting to rim and drawing contact. He is very efficient from both the free-throw line and behind the arc, and with the help of some fellow transfers, Verot looks to make a splash in the postseason this year.

The 6′ junior is an elite 3-level scorer and recorded his 1,000 career point back on 12/15 in a win over Canterbury. He, like Roker, has recorded double-figures in every game, with multiple 20+ point outings, making this duo one of the best backcourts around. He had a stretch back in early December where he had 5-straight 20 point games, followed by a 17 point, 5 steal performance in a win over rival Fort Myers during the City of Palms Classic. Williams is a special talent offensively, he’s aggressive at getting to the rim, a tremendous free-throw shooter, and has a great jump shot with unlimited range. He’s averaging 20.7 ppg, 2.3 rpg, 1.9 asp, and 2.8 spg, and hopes stay hot heading into 2024, where this revamped Vikings squad has postseason hopes.
