Cody Williams, G/F, Colorado
We've been stuck on one facet of Williams' game. We're still compounded by it. Why was his three-point volume so low?
After all, he shot 41.5% from deep for Colorado this year. Yet, Williams attempted just 1.7 threes per game. Why was he so apprehensive about shooting the ball?
Love this for Cody Williams.

I don’t think he moves into jumpers like this very often, but he has the ability to, and the more he does it, the more he will develop the same kind of mid range PU.

This is a key question for Williams. If he's willing to shoot threes at a higher volume at the NBA level, the sky is the limit for him. There isn't an identifiable hole in his game outside of three-point shooting.
Williams is a capable defender, a plus passer, and a steady ball-handler. This is exactly the type of well-rounded 6'8" wing that teams covet all around the league. If he's on the board when the Rockets make their selection, they'll be tempted by him.
