Williams has started 16 of OSU’s 24 games this season, averaging 8.0 points per game. He has has made 31-of-67 (.463) of his three-point attempts this season, playing 22.3 minutes per game.
Without Williams, the Buckeyes will turn to freshman shooting guard Musa Jallow and grad transfer point guard Andrew Dakich to pick up Williams’ minutes and shot attempts. Jallow has started 10 games this season, but has not scored a point in OSU’s last eight games. In fact, he has only scored 5 points in Big Ten play this season.
Cam Williams is a horrible excuse for a basketball player, lacks intensity and seems to lack floor smarts. Another of Matta’s “so called great recruits”. Good riddance if he is done for the year. Play someone who wants to play.
