Working on his shot was the most important aspect to Newton’s Maddox Williams during the offseason and he put in a ton of time doing so.
“In the offseason I was in the weight room a lot which is one thing I wanted to fix but my main thing I wanted to fix was getting my shot faster and more consistent,” Williams said. “I met that goal by getting up 300-500 shots every day to get better.”
Not only did Williams did get in thousands of shots in over the summer, but he also competed against elite competition.
“This summer the main thing I have been doing is training,” Williams said. “I have been to two camps this summer and a big one was the KU camp, I have also been in the weight room all summer and all off season, but most of all I have been in the gym all summer long, whether it’s just shooting or training.”
There are several levels to being a good leader and Williams is hoping he can get to all of those levels.
“I am most excited about this season because I am excited to take the leadership role of being an upperclassman,” Williams said. “We also had a very productive offseason. We had a lot of young guys who bought in and showed a ton of commitment this summer. Some goals I have for this year is definitely having a better team chemistry and getting along with everyone better.”
