| Williams, Elliot | Memphis | 6'4" | 180 | SG, PG | Soph. | Elliot Williams is a lefty Combo Guard with size. He is an excellent defender and scorer although not a shooter. He scored in double figures in 32 of 34 games in 2009-10. ...He can knock down the spot three point shot. …He is also effective using his a hard right hand dribble to set up his lefty shot. …He is an NBA athlete! ...Williams did not attend the Pre Draft Combine in Chicago. Does he have a promise already from a team? What is he hiding? According to the Memphis Commercial Appeal, "in February, Williams was diagnosed with a right knee bruise. That was the second time last season Williams had a problem with his right knee. Doctors initially diagnosed Williams with a knee bruise after a Dec. 12 victory against Arkansas-Little Rock. The knee was severely swollen after the game, and Williams was not able to practice for a week." ...Whoever selects him will want to check out that knee. ...I felt like Williams had a "me-first" game too often. I have him ranked significantly lower than most scouts. |
Where do I expect Williams to be taken? Somewhere around 25th.
Our best advice: In 2002 - the 25th pick was Frank Williams. We said - "take Carlos Boozer".
Our worst advice: In 2001 - the 25th pick was Gerald Wallace. We said - "take Nakeia Miller".
