Strong against Arkansas Williams posted 22 points (9-13 FG, 4-7 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists and one steal in 25 minutes during Saturday's 89-79 loss to Arkansas.
Impact It was the best individual scoring day of the fifth-year senior's time with Kentucky, but even a second consecutive double-double from Williams wasn't enough to prevent the home SEC loss. Kentucky has now lost three of its last four games, but a win earlier this week against Tennessee should keep the Wildcats in the national rankings.

Dominates on the boards Williams provided 10 points (3-5 FG, 4-6 FT), 15 rebounds and four assists in 24 minutes during Tuesday's 78-73 win over Tennessee.
Impact Williams' now has a double-double in 11 - or more than half - of Kentucky's games. The center's 15 boards were a season high as he handled the glass in a huge win over the Volunteers. At this point, Williams is a walking double-double, and he's also shooting the ball at the highest efficiency of his career (56.5 percent from the field).

Double-double in win Williams logged 10 points (3-4 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 4-5 FT), 12 rebounds, six assists and two blocks in 30 minutes during Saturday's 95-90 victory over Mississippi State.
Impact Williams notched his third double-double of the season, and his first since Nov. 9 against Bucknell. The center also had a season-high six assists, impacting the game in a variety of ways. Williams hasn't been the most assertive scorer, as he's taken eight shots combined over the past two games. However, the senior plays with moxie and he's in the midst of his most efficient scoring season yet, shooting 58.2 percent from the field.
JANUARY 12, 2025 • ROTOWIRE
Limited to six in win Williams closed with six points (2-4 FG, 2-4 FT), eight rebounds, four assists and one steal across 16 minutes during Saturday's 93-85 victory over Louisville.
Impact Williams is far from Kentucky's top scorer, but the forward was held to just six points on four shots, both the second-lowest totals of the young season. He still cleaned up the glass with eight boards and dished out four assists. He'll look to bounce back, at least scoring wise, on Dec. 21 against Ohio State.

Nears double-double in win Williams ended with nine points (4-5 FG, 1-3 FT), 11 rebounds, two assists and two blocks over 20 minutes during Tuesday's 97-68 win over Lipscomb.
Impact Williams was highly efficient and wasn't asked to do all that much in the Wildcats resounding victory over Lipscomb. The center has been a consistent double-double threat. He'll need to cut down on the turnovers (12 through the first four games) but he's doing his job inside for Kentucky.
