Shining despite team struggles Williams produced eight points (2-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), eight rebounds, three blocks and two steals across 34 minutes during Saturday's 79-69 loss to Alabama.
Impact While Saturday's scoring output was Williams' lowest total of the calendar year, he's still posting an impressive 14.4 ppg and 7.0 rpg through 10 contests in 2023. This impressive individual totals haven't led to much team success, however, as LSU is riding a nine-game losing streak, and the fifth-year senior appears likely to be let out of impactful postseason action.

Re-Analyzing the KJ Williams vs Oscar Tshiebwe Matchup There was a certain amount of hype surrounding the LSU-Kentucky matchup on Tuesday night, and for good reason.
JANUARY 4, 2023 • 247SPORTS.COM
Makes four three-pointers Williams logged 23 points (8-13 FG, 4-6 3Pt, 3-3 FT), three rebounds, two assists and one block across 36 minutes during Louisiana State's 74-71 loss Tuesday at Kentucky.
Impact Currently, Williams is one of few centers who can score well inside and behind three-point arcs. He averaged 2.8 threes made across his four games from Dec. 17 to Jan. 3. Williams' scoring versatility is mostly why fantasy managers should expect him being an excellent option during 2023.
