Fantasy Analysis
Williams started to break out in 2006-07, but he was a Fantasy phenom in 2007-08. He's going to be a candidate for 20 points and 10 assists in his fourth NBA season and will be an elite Fantasy guard for the next decade or so if he can stay healthy. He's playing the John Stockton role in Utah's system and is an even better scorer. He'll be a top pick in Fantasy. (Updated 04/17/2008).
