This definitely puts some of my concerns to rest about D. He was highest per 40 minutes in steals I think as well. Another year with Rhefeldt will go a long way in helping his lateral quickness. I hope Washington really focuses on his defense as well. If he does...we might have a chance to remain a top 15 D. If Washington learns to share the ball just a little more and can stay on the court for 30 minutes we could have a HUGE year! |

Keith Williams was selected to play in the Jordan Brand Regional and put up 25 points on 12-17 shooting.
He also plays on Friday in the Allen Iverson Round ball classic. He will be teammates with Xavier commit Naji Marshall and will also play against X's best recruit, Paul Scruggs. Keith seems to be getting selected for a lot of these type of games and I think its a good look for UC that people think he is that good. I just watched his Senior mix tape, the dude dunks a lot and super athletic. He and Cumberland are very much get to them rim players. From what i've seen, he truly can contribute right away |

I def. think he will contribute right away. I think it's going to be the same feel we have had for a few years now with Gary, Evans and Cumberland. A few freshman each year some will need more time but at least 1 a year that can really develop throughout the year and be considered a top player on the team. I'm excited for this kid for sure. |

I could see him giving us valuable back up minutes this up coming season. Especially on D and maybe to a lesser extent on offense. Give this guy a year or two to hone his dribbling and shooting skills and he will probably be a great one for us. I just don't see him surpassing Evans or Cumberland any time soon on the depth chart....but that's okay IMO. |

247 has moved Keith Williams from a 3 star to a 4 Star prospect and # 102 in the class.
Which is a huge huge jump (he was 160 before) http://247sports.com/Season/2017-Bas...oup=HighSchool |

That's great! He's also 124 on rivals. I expect this kid to be ready to get some important minutes this year... similar to Cumberland.

I think his length and athleticism guarantees he will be able to play D in McCronins system. The bigger question would be can he score against good defense?
