In recent games, Jaylen Williams of the Thunder performed amazingly and scored 30+ in anger. This performance also made Rockets fans shine, and they called on the offseason team to directly win it. So, what kind of player is Jaylen Williams, and is he really suitable for the Rockets?

Let's first look at Jaylen Williams' physical data. He is 1.98 meters tall and weighs 100 kilograms, but his arm span reaches an astonishing 2.18 meters. Such an excellent wingspan gives him a natural advantage on the defensive end and can easily interfere with his opponent's shooting and passing. In today's era of emphasizing defense and switching, such physical conditions are undoubtedly extremely popular.

Looking at his average data, in the 2023-24 season, he played 71 games and started all of them, averaging 31.3 minutes per game, scoring 19.1 points, 4 rebounds, 4.5 assists, and 1.1 steals. His shooting percentage reached 54.0%, and his three-point shooting percentage was as high as 42.7%. The data of this season is also very impressive. As of now, he averaged 21.0 points per game, 5.5 rebounds and 5.1 assists, and his shooting percentages in all aspects remain at a high level. From these data, it can be seen that he not only has excellent scoring skills, but also makes important contributions in the organization and defensive ends.

Next, let's talk about his adaptation with the Rockets. The Rockets are currently in the reconstruction stage, and the team needs strong players to improve their competitiveness. Jaylen Williams's all-round offense and defense is fully in line with the defensive discipline emphasized by Uduka. His defense switching ability can improve the Rockets' defensive toughness in the backcourt and complement the Rockets' inside core Shin Kyung. On the offensive end, his ball-holding ability can share Jaylen Green's organizational and defensive pressure, allowing Green to focus more on scoring. His excellent breakthrough and pass-through ability can also activate Shin Kyung's offense in the inside. In addition, his running and projecting ability without the ball is also very suitable for the Rockets' space needs.

If the Rockets can really win Jaylen Williams in the offseason, it will undoubtedly be a huge improvement in the team's strength. Of course, the transaction is not easy, and many factors such as the Thunder's attitude and trading chips need to be considered. But it is undeniable that Jaylen Williams is indeed a player worthy of the Rockets' full pursuit.
