Grant Williams has defied the odds his entire basketball career. Why should that stop now?
Williams is nothing short of a legend in Knoxville. The former six-foot-five, three-star power forward recruit turned into a back to back SEC player of the year. He was the main catalyst in Tennessee’s return to the national stage in college basketball.
Grant isn’t your typical star athlete, either. A self-proclaimed nerd, Williams was a nationally ranked chess player before his basketball stardom. He could be constantly seen playing the board game ‘Settlers of Catan’ on the team plane before games.
