Lincoln Williams: From Dominance to Development | College Basketball News

Lincoln Williams, a freshman guard with jaw-dropping high school stats, is poised to dominate college basketball. As a senior, he averaged 26 points, 6 rebounds, 3 assists, and 3 steals while shooting 77% from the field — leading his team to a 29-win, undefeated conference season. He was a top-three finalist for Illinois Mr. Basketball, named Class 3-A Media Player of the Year, and holds Kankakee’s all-time scoring record with over 1,800 points. His standout 44-point game and undefeated run with Nike EYCL (including a 30-point Peach Jam performance) prove his elite talent.

Cam Gill Returns to Panthers | College Basketball News

Cam Gill, UFL Defensive Player of the Year and former Panther, is back in Carolina—this time with a chance to prove he’s NFL material.
