From Home: William is a kind, funny and athletic middle schooler. He is a great son, and brother to his siblings. He enjoys traveling with his family. William is a busy athlete, and his first love is basketball, but you can also find him running cross country and track, playing flag football, competing in triathlons, and skiing in the winter. This past year he has embraced strength, speed and agility training, and loves the grind with his friends. He has found a new hobby in fishing with his basketball buddies, which allows him to find quiet in nature, and some time away from his busy schedule. His YB teammates are William’s buddies and bros.

From Coach: As one of the original members of the team, Williams’ growth and development have been nothing short of remarkable. He first joined simply as a kid who wanted to play a little ball, but through hard work and dedication he has transformed into a true baller in every sense of the word. His all-around improvement—handling, shooting, passing, movement without the ball, and overall basketball IQ—is second to none. He has established himself as one of the fastest power forwards in his age group, and he has worked tirelessly to refine and maximize this natural gift. William is relentless in his commitment to fitness, individual skill work, and sharpening his understanding of the game. With his newfound ability to control the ball at high speeds on the fast break and finish at the rim with both strength and authority, the sky is the limit for what he can achieve. His short-range shooting touch has improved rapidly, and with his confidence soaring, he is becoming an even more versatile offensive threat. A key piece of the front-court, William can play long, demanding stretches without showing fatigue, providing his team with consistency, toughness, and explosive athleticism every time he takes the floor.
