Cody Williams Hype and Appreciation Thread

To move from, "He's the worst NBA player ever!!!" to "Yeah, but he's not Giannis. . ." I think is as far as any goalpost has moved ever. . .
Just curious what a top five NBA players stats are. Nothing more. Just curious what the gap is. Not suggesting Cody will ever approach
top five status.

Seems like a lot of his progress is related to physical development. In the past couple of weeks, he’s shown the ability to get well above the rim and finish dunks. That’s something he wasn’t doing last season.

While we’re on the topic, Brice has also been getting above the rim and dunking this season. Keyonte’s athleticism has improved as well.

One of the more exciting things that Cody did last night was getting physical tying up their big guys on the block on multiple possessions. That's not something he was capable of doing last year, and maybe he's just starting to gain the confidence to do now.
 
Cody is a much better defender than Hendricks when it comes to staying in front. He has better weakside rim protection than Hendricks too cuz he has some anticipation that Hendricks has negative of.

The Jazz kind of really need Cody to figure it out. He's one of the few players with defensive talent on the roster.

Cody has a much better understanding of how basketball works, where he's supposed to be, rotations Fingers crossed

Taylor looks much more one dimension 3 & D strictly type

I've said similar things before and this is the reason that I'm higher on Cody than I should be. I know that Brice and Flip are much much better players than Cody, but Cody is our only rookie contract player besides Kessler that I have much hope in becoming a plus defender.
