From Lincoln to the League? Brice Williams Spills on NBA Combine & His Rise at Nebraska
Brice Williams isn’t just dreaming about the NBA—he’s chasing it down at full speed. After a standout season with Nebraska Basketball, the 6’7” guard took his talents to the NBA Draft Combine, turning heads and raising eyebrows with his versatile game, athleticism, and court IQ.
In a recent interview, Williams opened up about his experience at the Combine, calling it “a surreal opportunity” and “a chance to prove I belong with the best.” And prove it, he did. Scouts noted his poise in drills, his improved shooting mechanics, and his growing confidence as a floor leader.
But the real story? His growth in Lincoln.
“This place changed me,” Williams said. “From the coaching staff to the fans, Nebraska became more than a program—it became home. They believed in me, and I took that personally.”
Under Head Coach Fred Hoiberg, Brice refined his skills, improved defensively, and became a go-to playmaker. Once a transfer flying under the radar, he evolved into one of the Big Ten’s most dangerous two-way players—now, he’s got NBA teams circling.
“I wanted to prove that I could compete at the highest level. Every day in Lincoln, I was grinding with that goal in mind. The NBA Combine? That’s just the next step.”
Whether Williams hears his name called on draft night or takes a different route to the league, one thing’s clear: his stock is rising, and Husker Nation is watching every move.
