Illinois Basketball: Illini land in Jaylin Williams’ top 7

On Wednesday night, Jaylin Williams posted a video on his Twitter account announcing his top seven teams. The list includes Oklahoma State, Auburn, Texas A&M, Arkansas, Iowa State, UConn and Illinois. Each one of these programs needs a player like Williams.

Williams is a 6-foot-9, 230-pound center from Northside High School in Fort Smith, Arkansas. He is rated as a four-star recruit who is the No. 67 player in the class of 2020 and the No. 11 center in the nation. He is also the best player in the state of Arkansas.

It looks like only one official visit has been taken by Williams and that was to Oklahoma State back on June 8.
