Malik William knows a good opportunity when he sees it, and he thinks he has a great opportunity at Clemson.

The 2017 6-7 power forward out of Orlando (FL) The First Academy gave his verbal to the Clemson coaches Wednesday morning. He is the second commitment for the 2017 class, joining shooting guard A.J. Oliver (the son of women’s basketball coach Audra Smith).

William told TigerNet that he took a hard look at Clemson’s roster and saw that Jaron Blossomgame is entering his senior season, and Blossomgame’s departure might mean early playing time.
