Offensive Game
Developing scorer with real potential. Capable from three and finishing at the rim. Needs more consistency from the mid-range area.
Career Journey
Utah Jazz
2024-present
No. 10 overall pick (2024)
Drafted by Utah after one season at Colorado; younger brother of Oklahoma City's Jalen Williams.
Expanded second-season role (2025-26)
Averaged roughly 8.8 points, 3.0 rebounds and 2.0 assists in about 24 minutes as Utah increased his workload.
Development bet
A projectable two-way wing whose jumper — stuck in the low 20s from three — is the swing skill to unlock the rest.

Cody Williams is the rebuilding Jazz's patience project — a long, smooth wing taken 10th in 2024 out of Colorado, and the younger brother of All-NBA guard Jalen Williams. Year two brought real minutes: around 24 a night, with his scoring up to 8.8 points as Utah handed him room to make mistakes and grow. The tools are obvious — positional size, easy movement, a feel for playing inside the offense. The number that tells the real story is the three-point percentage, stuck in the low 20s, and until that jumper becomes a threat defenses will keep sagging off him. Utah isn't rushing. On a young roster with time to spare, Williams gets the runway to turn projectable into productive.
Offensive Game
Developing scorer with real potential. Capable from three and finishing at the rim. Needs more consistency from the mid-range area.
Defensive Game
His calling card. Exceptional lateral quickness, length, and effort make him a disruptive defender who can guard multiple positions.
Intangibles
Smart team defender who understands rotations. Offensive IQ is still catching up to his athleticism but the foundation is there.
Did You Know?
Is Scottie Barnes' younger brother — the NBA literally runs in their family.
Was selected #10 overall in 2024 as part of a Jazz draft class that landed three players in the lottery.
His defensive intensity as a rookie immediately impressed Utah's coaching staff — he guards bigger and smaller positions alike.
Despite being in Scottie's shadow, he has carved out his own identity as a two-way wing with different but complementary skill sets.
