Cody Williams Hype and Appreciation Thread

No matter what, the one thing you need is NBA basketball players, not "physical specimens", "sets of tools", "athletics", "wingspans"....
Are CD or TH NBA basketball players? That's the question to be answered.

There is something there deep beneath the surface.

He has NBA athleticism and size, and can move his feet defensively. He has enough of that to be a threat in transition. He just has to learn how to shoot and/or be more confident/forceful in his drives.

He has the potential to be our best wing defender. If I had to give minutes to him or Taylor, I would probably opt for Cody as I see his defensive potential being so much higher
 
I know he turned 21 recently, but I still have not seen anything that has persuaded me Cody is an NBA player
He has the body of a prototypical NBA player now. Mentally, he has been playing with an edge lately.

Cody will have a long NBA career... at least as a bench player. Calm, smart, coachable, consistent effort on defense, gets along with everyone - teams like this type of players. And if he develops any semblance of a shot he will be a starter in a couple of years.
 
Tidjane Salaun's improvement is giving me hope for Cody. Salaun is much more physically mature+higher motor, but he was about as bad as Cody last year and he's looking like a clear rotation guy now.

Best part of Cody's performance last game was getting 6 rebounds in a steal. He needs to be more active. Kind of like a Corey Brewer.
