How bad/good is Cody Williams?

[Tremendous Upside]

Cody is shooting 7/23 (30%) on 3PAs in summer league. (That doesn't count a last-second, off-balance heave at the final buzzer when the game was decided.)

Clearly a future 3&D guy

I don't know what yall are talking about with the last game. He came on late with alot of buckets when the game was tight at the end. If you always look for negatives, you certainly will find them but I thought last game was a good game from Cody. I hope he can carry that end of the game aggressiveness into the regular season.

Still trying to decide how much of the hesitation is innate and how much is lack of experience. I don’t care if fails, he just needs to keep attacking.

Think he reminds me a bit of Andrew Wiggins with his habit of being passive. Not that he has Wiggins athleticism but Wiggins also has the tendency to disappear in games.

He’s got more tools than a lot of other projects. I think he’ll be in a good place to work on his game more this year so I’m withholding judgment until next June. I’m just glad we picked a lane and can now see if there’s any future in it.

I'm concerned that he doesn't have a consistent energy or effort level. He shows up to make a small flurry of nice plays, and then he disappears for two days. The other thing is that his offensive game really is predicated on driving, and he hasn't been able to do that against 7-foot NBA bigs unless he gets them isolated on the perimeter.
