One of the most talented players in the history of Colorado Buffaloes Men’s Basketball is on campus right now, and the hype around Cody Williams keeps building. The freshman forward at CU might be the first one-and-done player of the Tad Boyle era. He came to Boulder as the top hoops recruit in the country, according to some. And may leave campus a year later as at least a top-five pick in the NBA Draft. In The Athletic’s latest big board for the 2024 NBA Draft, Williams was listed as the fifth-best player in this class.
