Fantasy Impact:

Williamson finishes his rookie season averaging 22.5 points, 6.3 rebounds, 2.1 assists while shooting 58% from the field and 42% from three-point range across 24 games this year. Williamson is undoubtedly in the running for rookie of the year honors but will have a tough time beating out Ja Morant. Williamson should be a top-50 selection in 12-team formats next season, assuming he can get in better shape and conditioning in year two.
