Larenz Williams

Scouting Report

• Scout’s Notes:

  Elite 24 Camp (August 2nd-3rd, 2014): The 6-foot-1 small forward is a talented prospect who is extremely athletic. He uses his long arms to rebound well on both ends of the floor, and he is also a talented finisher around the rim. Since last year, he has transitioned to more of a small forward, improving both his perimeter shooting as well as his ball-handling skills.

  Elite 24 Camp (August 8-9, 2015): Williams continued the tradition of Louisiana Elite AAU players smacking the competition with overwhelming athleticism.  After Kobe Julien, Gregory Williams, and Josh LeBlanc earned top 10 honors at The Summit Camp in June...Larenz needed to live up to the LA Elite standard.   He did.  Williams was fantastic slashing to the bucket.  He flies up the court and brings his intensity to every contest.  His length and quickness combine to give defenders fits.  He projects as a wing beyond high school.  He might be able to play either wing spot if he keeps improving with his handles.   He runs the floor like a deer.  Williams is a terror on the offensive glass.  Because he pounces on every miss, it seems no errant shot is safe in the hands of the defense.  He can really fly to the rim.  Williams gave the fans a raucous “ooh” and “aah” block in the Final Four of the halfcourt tournament.  It will be fun to watch him develop.  There are not many wings with his ceiling in the 2019 class.    An impromptu dunk contest featured several sparkling jams from Williams.    When he decides to take over he only does well attacking the basket.  He does NOT hit outside shots in big moments.  Williams also camped with Future150 in 2013. -Andrew Force
