Here are 10 Facts You Need to Know about Alondes Williams

1. Alondes Williams was Born and Raised in Milwaukee

Born June 13, 1999, Alondes Williams comes from a relatively small family of four. His parents, Louis Williams and Lastasia Malone raised him and his only brother, Brionne in Milwaukee. Although it is not certain if he has other siblings, Alondes once shared a picture of himself and Brionne on Instagram with a third person which he referred to as his sister.

He attended Riverside High School in Milwaukee where he played basketball. He also played in a junior college program while attending Triton College in Illinois. Before he focused on his basketball career, he earned a degree in communication at Wake Forest.

2. The 25-year-old Basketball Player Started Playing Basketball in Fifth Grade

Alondes was reportedly coached by Tyrone Lewis from his fifth grade through high school. He averaged 12.3 points per game as a senior and was named the First Team-All-conference.

By the time he was a freshman at Triton College, the Milwaukee native averaged 13.8 points and 6.3 rebounds per game. Before his sophomore season, he helped his team win the National Junior College Athletic Association (NJCAA) Division II title, having scored 22 points with seven rebounds in the title game.

The basketball player then averaged 17 points, 7.7 rebounds, and 5.3 assists per game during his sophomore season. In his two years at Triton, he had a total of 1,059 points and 15.4 per game. However, he was later transferred to Oklahoma for the remainder of his junior season.

While at Oklahoma, Williams averaged 6.7 points and 2.8 rebounds per game. He made history when he transferred to Wake Forest and posted the second triple-double with 16 points, 14 rebounds, and 10 assists in a 79-53win against USC Upstate.

Alondes Williams scored a career-high 36 points in a 77-70 victory over VMI. His performance during the game earned him the title of the ACC Player of the Year. Aside from that honor, he has previously earned First Team All-North Central Community College Conference (N4C) accolades.

During the 2012-22 season, Williams became the first Demon Deacon to win the ACC Player of the Year. He also earned national recognition from the US Basketball Writers Association as well as the National Association of Basketball Coaches.

He was the second player in the program history to ever rank within the top 15 in both single-season points and assists.

3. He was Undrafted in the 2022 NBA Draft 

According to reports, Williams wasn’t highly recruited mainly because his grades were not good. Although he was undrafted in the 2022 NBA Draft, Alondes Williams later caught the attention of the NBA for his ability to score well. His ability to have risen from junior college to role player at Oklahoma made him a special player.

On July 4, 2022, it was announced that Williams signed a two-way contract with the Brooklyn Nets of the NBA. Unable to hide his joy, Williams took to social media to share with his fans how his dreams are gradually becoming reality.

4. Alondes Williams has Quite a Couple of Nicknames

The Brooklyn Nets player is also known as ‘ManMan’. Apparently, his mother, Lastasia Malone started calling him by the name when he was about 9 months old. The player once revealed that his mother chose the name because he saw him as her ‘little man’. He also added that the name stuck because he had a lot of energy and he could do backflips as a toddler.

Growing up, ManMan had other nicknames as well. His father once revealed that he was also called ‘Hot Sauce’ because of his on-court moves.

5. His Brother, Brionne is Following in His Footsteps

Alondes Williams seems to be setting the pace for his younger brother, Brionne. The latter played basketball at Milwaukee Vincent High School. Brionne Williams recently shared that he was starting a new phase of his basketball career at Triton College.

6.  Alondes Has a Unique Playing Style

Due to his athletic physique, Williams is often described as an athlete with a powerful body. He is known for his willingness to pass the ball and get all his teammates involved. The ACC player of the year has been described by some of his teammates as someone who lets the game come to him.

Also, the point guard is said to be a scorer who gets really aggressive with the ball no matter the situation. He has also been equally praised for the tactics he uses to open up the floor for other players while he aims for a good shot.

7. What is Alondes Williams’ Height?

The former Triton Trojans player has an impressive height. He stands 6 feet 5 inches tall and reportedly weighs around 95kg. His height is said to be close to the average height of an NBA player(6 feet 6inches). Reports say the tallest player stands at 7 feet 7 inches while the shortest player stands at 5 feet 5 inches.

8. Who is Alondes Williams Dating?

At the moment, the talented player has not revealed if he has any love interest. It seems Alondes is focused on his career for now. However, it is obvious he loves his family seeing that he shares pictures of them once in a while on social media.

One of the most important people in his life seems to be his maternal grandmother, who sadly died before he started playing professionally.

9. The Milwaukee-born Athlete is Known for His Unique Hairstyle

Ever since Alondes Williams started playing basketball, he has created a unique trademark for himself by either braiding his long hair or just maintaining the afro style. Interestingly, he is not the only basketball player who’s rocking braids on the court. Others include DeAndre Jordan and Mike Conley Jr.

10. What is His Net Worth?

There are speculations that Alondes has not shared his earnings with the public. Also, teams like the Wake Forest Demon Deacons which he played for in the past have never published their players’ earnings so it would be hard to tell what he has in his purse.

His two-year contract might be fetching him some money although neither he nor the team has revealed the details of the contract. Since the salary of most NBA players depends on the player’s years of experience, Alondes’ salary might fall between the range of $1,017,781 and $2,905,851. As for his net worth, it is assumed that he should be around $500,000 at the moment.

Nevertheless, since Alondes Williams is still quite young and seems to be starting his professional career, his earnings would definitely increase as he gets better at his game. This player is one star to look out for and in no time, he would join the likes of LeBron James and Kevin Durant, who are undeniable NBA’s top players.
