Williams-Adams has been described as being built to do battle in the post and dangerous traveling downhill. The forward has a nearly 7-foot-2 wingspan and is capable of guarding multiple positions. A reliable jumper seems to be the only missing ingredient in the prospect’s game right now.
During his junior season in 2023-24, Williams-Adams averaged 21.1 points, 10 rebounds, and 4.4 assists per game. The talented forward led the St. Johns Mavericks to a 26-7 record for the 2023-24 season. On the Nike EYBL circuit, Williams-Adams averaged 14.5 points, 5.2 rebounds, and 3.3 assists per game.
Williams-Adams’ commitment gives the Tigers the No. 14 class for 2025 so far. The young prospect is the 3rd player to commit to the Tigers, joining 4-star guards Kaden Magwood and Simon Walker.
Before committing to Auburn, Williams-Adams took official visits to Purdue, Vanderbilt, SMU, Oklahoma State, and others. Williams-Adams first visited the Tigers back in September, and clearly that meeting had an impact on the youngster.
