Jeenathan Wiliams – Buffalo Wing

Jeenathan Williams is another name that has improved over a four year college career, with his best season in 2021/22 showing that he can score with the best of them, averaging 19 points, 5 rebounds and 3 assists per game for Buffalo. Williams also managed to shoot 45% from beyond the arc, and at the next level, despite going un-drafted in the 2022 draft, projects to be a good scorer on all three levels, and if he can continue to impress this organization in Summer League, he may find himself on the fringe of an NBA spot in 2022/23.

To make it at the next level, Williams certainly has to improve on the defensive end, but given his size, standing at 6’5″ and 205 pounds, he should be able to stand up to the biggest and best wings in the NBA, and could be an absolute steal for this Utah franchise that finds themselves at a cross roads right now. Shooting will always play at the NBA level in today’s game, and if Williams can continue to improve and put up impressive numbers during the summer, there’s no reason why he won’t be able to find a G-League spot in 2022/23 and continue his rise to the next level.
