Janessa Williams brings size, versatility, and board work to LIU's backcourt
Williams is a 5-foot-10 guard for LIU who adds positional versatility and a strong rebounding presence for a perimeter player, with her recent college resume showing she can handle minutes and contribute across the box score. LIU’s roster notes indicate she appeared in all 30 games in 2023-24 and was around the floor in a variety of roles, while her pre-college production showed scoring, rebounding, and disruptive defense. For a team, the appeal is a guard who can play bigger than her position and do the gritty work that doesn’t always jump off a stat sheet.
