High school career

Williams played junior varsity basketball for Riverdale Baptist School in Upper Marlboro, Maryland for two years. He stood 5 ft 9 in (1.75 m) as a freshman and was rejected by many Amateur Athletic Union programs. Williams grew 11 in (28 cm) from 2016 to 2018, and transferred to St. Andrew's Episcopal School in Potomac, Maryland, where he repeated his sophomore year.[2] As a junior, he averaged 16 points, 10 rebounds and three blocks per game, earning First Team All-Met honors.[3] For his senior season, he transferred to IMG Academy in Bradenton, Florida due to concerns over the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on access to facilities at St. Andrew's.[4] He averaged 16.3 points and six rebounds per game as a senior.[5] Williams was named to the Jordan Brand Classic roster.[6]

Recruiting

Williams was considered a five-star recruit by Rivals, and a four-star recruit by 247Sports and ESPN.[7] He committed to playing college basketball for Syracuse over offers from Maryland, Georgetown and Miami (Florida).[8]
