if he's in fact being projected that high you have to leave. i don't care if you have coach k as your coach, you leave if you are guaranteed that kind of money, and he sure as shite isn't playing for anything significant next year under kennedy.

Just hypothetically speaking, if he were projected 10th and could raise it to 5th, it's over 1.5x as much money on the first contract...
He will have an insurance policy, so it's not a huge risk.
He's being projected as high as he is while being a relative unknown until mid-way through the season and being thought of as a career role player... If he can show ANY kind of face-up game this year, NBA GMs will go nuts.

The pitch to Williams and others like him is that you're going to get that huge first contract, but look at how many past high picks have flamed out because they didn't develop enough in their first few years. NBA teams are going to want you to significantly contribute within three years tops or get the hell out of the way. Another year at the collegiate level to work on his low post moves and face up game will do him well long term.
