Chaz Williams Post UMass
I don't see him getting drafted or playing on an NBA team, but I wouldn't count him out going to one of the camps. I think the only projects NBA teams will entertain are big men because there is always potential. Chaz is playing at the top of his game and I think will make a big name for himself overseas.
When I think of another player at his height that is playing on an NBA team, I think of Jameer Nelson (of St. Joes fame), but Jameer is 6.0 ft and a first round pick.

Oh my god, they love state schools out here.

I don't think he will get drafted, but could see him impressing in the Summer League and earning a training camp invite at the very least. I know some have already touched on his struggles against big teams with trees inside, BUT I think the spacing will help him inside at the next level. Giving him more space to use his quickness and agility will help his game. Big men may be slow to help on his drives since a lot of NBA 4's and 5's now can stretch the floor with range.

WMUA talks with Chaz

Sounds like he has more to do in his overseas playing, but he wants to get into coaching someday, back here if the opportunity allows.

Cool interview. Always good to hear about what Chaz is up to. Chaz brought up a good point about why hiring DK back will be beneficial. Chaz spoke about “the energy” not being there the past few years regarding reaching out to him and other former players. Now with DK there chaz is talking about going to the 1st practice of the season and working out with Noah to givw him some pointers.

He was a counselor at the basketball camp my grandniece attended this summer.
She knew he played pro ball in Europe but she didn’t know he went to UMass.
She said he was cool.

It was 2014 when I highlighted @Chaz3Williams as on of the best PG finishing college (UMass) and ready to play start pros in Europe. Today I'm watching him in playing for @COBSAD
