Xavier Williams brings size, rim protection, and a proven interior edge to Tennessee State
In the 2016-17 season, Xavier Williams flashed the kind of frontcourt profile coaches love: a 6-9, 220-pound forward who could protect the rim, rebound, and give physical minutes when healthy. He averaged 1.0 points and 0.9 rebounds in 5.2 minutes over 10 games before an injury ended his season, but his best game showed upside with 4 points, 5 rebounds, and 3 blocks. What makes him interesting is the rare blend of size, strength, and defensive instincts—more blue-collar than highlight reel, and that can still make him a useful fit if durability holds.
