The basics
ESPN lists Williams at Faith Academy from Mobile, Alabama. Prep Hoops lists Leartist Williams Jr. at 6-foot-8 attending Saraland in Alabama. The CBR board lists Faith Academy. Listed as a PF at Faith Academy, and he appears on the Alabama board. Status: uncommitted.
The boards
ESPN ranks him No. 52 with a scout grade of 85. 247Sports had him at No. 30.
The recruitment
ESPN lists Alabama State, Georgia State, Tennessee, and Troy on his school list as of July 5, 2026. He remains uncommitted.
The look
ESPN ranks him No. 52 with a scout grade of 85. Faith Academy is where Williams put it on paper. 247Sports had him at No. 30.
ESPN lists Alabama State, Georgia State, Tennessee, and Troy on his school list as of July 5, 2026. He remains uncommitted. The academy circuit column is the house piece that sits next to this card. I would treat Williams as settled at No. 39 until Faith Academy replaces the published 2028 card at Faith Academy with a louder line.
What to watch
Can Williams add a perimeter piece to the paint work ESPN's power-forward listing points toward?
