WICHITA, Kan. — The Wichita State University men's basketball program received an in-state commitment on Wednesday morning, as Wichita Heights product T.J. Williams posted the news on his X account.
Williams is currently a senior at Wichita Heights High School and is a top-150 recruit according to numerous national media outlets. Williams is listed at 6-foot-4, 175 pounds. He held offers from Indiana State, Iowa, Missouri, North Texas, SMU, Tennessee, Texas A&M and Texas Tech.
According to 247sports' Eric Bossi, Williams is "one of the more explosive wing players in the class of 2024, Williams is at his best when he's playing in attack mode and attacking the rim. He isn't a flashy ball handler but gets where he needs to go off of the dribble and is also a clever passer and playmaker who does a good job of reading ball screens. His jump shot is hot and cold so as he gets more consistent there he can really free up space to attack even more off the dribble. With his length and lateral quickness, he has the tools to be an excellent defender."
