#8•J. WILLIAMS
F • 6'6, 195 lbs; 4th year, Santa Clara
TOP DOG
NBA ROLE: VERSATILE, PLAYMAKING WING/FORWARD
Affectionately nicknamed “JDub,” Jalen Williams has emerged as one of OKC’s star players; coveted by the Thunder in the 2022 Draft despite performing “under the radar” at Santa Clara; pretty much does it all: at 6’6, Williams can create action for his teammates, aims to lock down his matchup & puts pressure on the other end as a driver & pull-up scorer; always seems to play under control, knows how to pick his spots in the flow of things; underrated “breakdown guy” - JDub is a savvy ball-handler w/ chain combos: uses subtle moves to get by his man at the last minute; meshes nicely w/ SGA & Chet - extremely versatile Big 3; very efficient scorer (accuracy from downtown will climb w/ more reps), values making the right play & taking the right shot; excellent defender w/ a strong base and a penchant for playing passing lanes; legitimate, two-way Top DOG status - NBA Champ!, huge part of OKC’s incredible title run in 2025: JDub’s the perfect “second option” with a knack for performing well under the bright lights
