Jazz's Cody Williams: Scores 17 points Saturday
Williams posted 17 points (6-10 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), five rebounds and two assists across 30 minutes in Saturday's 126-120 preseason loss to the Spurs.
Williams was one of three Utah players who scored 15 or more points, though overall, the team was depleted since Lauri Markkanen (rest) and Keyonte George (knee) were unavailable. Williams is expected to begin the 2024-25 regular season as an option off the bench since Markkanen and Taylor Hendricks are penciled in to start at the forward spots.

Jazz's Cody Williams: Lands with Utah at No. 10
The Jazz selected Williams with the No. 10 pick in the 2024 NBA Draft.
Williams flashed his upside as a playmaker and finisher during his one-and-done season at Colorado, registering per-40 averages of 16.8 points, 4.2 rebounds and 2.2 assists per contest. He did struggle down the stretch of his freshman season while dealing with injuries, so he'll need to work on being more consistent and expanding his shooting range at the NBA level. With that said, he should have plenty of opportunity in Utah, so he'll be someone to watch at Summer League and throughout the preseason to see how his role develops.
