Cody Williams is one of the most interesting prospects in the 2024 lottery. While a great player in his own right, he hasn’t been able to avoid the connection (and the comparisons) to his older brother, Jalen Williams, of the Oklahoma City Thunder. Now, Cody Williams is by no means a highly touted prospect because of his brother, he’s a phenomenal player, and a higher rated prospect than Jalen ever was coming out of high school. With exceptional efficiency and an NBA ready build and athletic profile, The range of opinions on Cody Williams range from major believers who believe he truly is a great player, could be better than his brother, and shot go top 3, to doubters who think his brother’s reputation has driven him much too high, and he should be borderline lottery at best. Where does he actually stand? Should he truly be a top 5 prospect? Or is it true that he’s gotten overhyped? Today, we are going to look at the pros of his game, the cons, and try to determine what kind of prospect Cody Williams truly is.

As a Spurs fan if Risacher isnt there at 4 (most likely), I would be pretty happy with Castle at 4 and Cody at 8

I’d be happy enough if blazers got him at 7, I’ve seen some mocks having him go to blazers at 14 but I doubt the thunder pass on him if he’s even available at 12

The Thunder could actually use a larger wing like him, if he falls to 12.

Is he a big wing though? He's pretty much a true 3. He's thin (180 pounds), only 6'7" and idk how good the rebounding and rim protection are I'm also not sure how big he actually gets. Like I'm pretty sure Buzelis will get up to 230 but Williams is always gonna be thin I think.

Good breakdown. Only thing that was weird is saying he's not elite at any one thing and then comparing him to one of the most elite defenders in the NBA. I personally didnt see the #1 overall hype he had earlier in the year, but i think there's been an over-correction with many having him outside the top 10. Easily top 10 and I have him at 6 on my board right now.

That’s somewhat why I said it was difficult to make a one-for-one comparison. He isn’t McDaniels, he isn’t THAT good of a defender, but defense is one of his better traits and overall he resembles him in a lot of ways.
