About Zion
Expert Analysis
Andrew Baxley | Prep Hoops Scout
Zion was also playing with Team EAT this weekend in Bermuda. He impressed as a wing with his ability to score the ball while not needing it in his hands often. Williams was in attack mode and didn’t waste his dribbles on his way to putting the ball in the basket. He has good size to shoot over defenders and is not shy of contact when finishing close to the rim. Zion also did a solid job on the defensive end, forcing turnovers and getting out in transition. In his squad’s overtime loss to Next Level Elite Poole, Williams had 19 Points.

Williams is a sizeable guard/wing prospect to get to know for North Mecklenburg High as he checks in at No. 43 in the 2025 rankings update. He’s due for a break out junior year alongside a talented cast given his ability to knock down shots in space and off the bounce in a hurry. When the ball isn’t in his hands, he’s flying around on defense for rebounds and blocks, utilizing his length. He’s got a chance to grow into quite the prospect with the Vikings.

is a crafty, naturally gifted scorer who can get it done on all three levels. Williams is a strong downhill driver and can make tough finishes at the rim, has a lethal midrange game, and a consistent three-ball that makes him a versatile scoring threat. As a big guard, Williams thrives on creating space from the wing. He’s got a quick first step that propels him to the rim. Williams has a nice feel for the game and is an unselfish passer. He knows when to take it himself and when to give it up. Williams runs the floor well and makes big-time plays in transition offense. What I like most about Williams’ game is his intensity. This is a guy who makes winning plays.
Williams provides a strong defensive presence that is a force to be reckoned with on the baseline. He is an athletic defender who has excellent control of his body. Williams is a scrappy, disciplined defender who can lock down teams’ number one option.
North Mecklenburg looks to get back to the NCHSAA-4A state championship this March; and the toughness, experience, and depth that
