Big Blue Nation might want to buckle up, because there’s a new sniper in town. According to Collin Chandler, fellow Kentucky guard Kam Williams put on an absolute shooting clinic during a recent Wildcats practice—burying 10 consecutive three-pointers without a miss. Contested or wide open, it didn’t matter. Williams was locked in, and his teammates were left in awe.
“I wish that BBN could have been at practice yesterday,” Chandler said. “I don’t know if people have talked about it, but it was one of the craziest things I’ve ever seen. We were just going up and down, probably 10 possessions in a row, we found Kam for a three. Contested or not, 10 in a row. Probably had 30 points straight. Hopefully, the tape will be out soon.”
That kind of heat-check performance has already sparked buzz among Kentucky fans eager to see how Williams’ shooting will translate when the lights are on at Rupp Arena. Shooting is one of the biggest swing factors in college basketball, and if Williams can bring that same rhythm and confidence into real game situations, the Wildcats may have found themselves a difference-maker from deep.
Chandler’s excitement was evident, and it’s clear the Kentucky backcourt is brimming with talent and confidence. For a team looking to return to national prominence, moments like these in practice fuel optimism that this year’s squad has the firepower to compete with anyone.
Big Blue Nation has seen legends built off of moments just like this—shooters who catch fire and become nearly unguardable. Kam Williams might just be the next name to add to that list.
Now the question is: when the season tips off, will Williams deliver the same knockout punch under the bright lights?
One thing’s for sure—after this practice performance, all eyes will be watching.
