He is the projected No. 5 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft, per ESPN.com. Williams was selected to the McDonald’s All-American Game, the Jordan Brand Classic and the Nike Hoop Summit, but all of those were canceled.

Some in the recruiting world believe Arizona and USC are the frontrunners, but Williams said in February he was still hearing from all the schools.

“North Carolina, Arizona, Stanford a lot, USC, even Oregon, too,” he said of the schools he hears from.

Williams said at the Hoophall that players committed to several of those schools were in his ear about joining them, including USC commit Evan Mobley as well as recruits headed to Arizona and North Carolina.
