Early life and college career
Williams, a 6'6" guard from Philadelphia, committed to Norfolk State where as a sophomore, he scored 20 points in the Spartans' 86–84 upset of number 2 seed Missouri in the 2012 NCAA Tournament. As a junior, after the loss of All-American Kyle O'Quinn, the Spartans were not expected to contend for the Mid-Eastern Athletic Conference championship. But Williams stepped up his performance, averaging 14.3 points and 4.3 rebounds per game. He led the Spartans to a 16–0 record and won conference Player of the Year honors. At the end of the season, Williams was named HBCU Player of the Year and an AP honorable mention All-American.
