Summary:

Eric Williams Jr. is a 6-6 forward that played college basketball at Oregon prior to transferring to play for San Diego this past season. He is an athletic, skilled swingman whose versatility can help teams in a variety of ways. He can knock down shots from the outside, and he also can guard multiple positions. Williams was recently invited to play at the 2023 Portsmouth Invitational Tournament. He’ll need to improve his ability to create his own shot and be a more consistent player in games, but he is a talented prospect that could project into a 3 and D role in the NBA.
