INTRODUCTION
Malik Williams is a mobile and well-sculpted big man with interesting facilitating skills. Coming off two foot injuries that hindered him and distanced him from his NBA dream, he remains a player of great interest for Europe. In the offensive phase, he is not very ball-dominant, partially utilizing his great abilities: he is good at moving without the ball, can play off the dribble to beat more static big men or hit from beyond the three-point line. The percentages, around 30%, have not seen improvement during his years at the Louisville, but they ensure a dual dimension. He effectively attacks from the low post, especially in mismatch situations. Defensively, he is an important presence at the rim where he has decent rim-protecting skills, and his rebound ratio relative to minutes played is considerable. On perimeter switches, he has good timing even though the injuries he suffered affect his lateral mobility. Overall, his potential is very significant; the main concerns arise from his physical aspect, but he could be a gamble that yields great rewards.
