Kam Williams Ignites Tulane With Explosive 3-Point Barrage in Freshman Finale — A Star Is Born!
In a jaw-dropping display of long-range marksmanship, Kam Williams lit up the court in his final regular-season game as a freshman for Tulane, putting the NCAA on notice with a performance that can only be described as nuclear.
The freshman guard was unconscious from beyond the arc, draining shot after shot with effortless precision and unshakable confidence. Williams finished the game with a career-high 33 points, including nine 3-pointers, sending fans at Devlin Fieldhouse into a frenzy and capping off a breakout season in epic fashion.
“The rim felt like an ocean tonight,” Williams said postgame, still catching his breath. “I’ve been working on my shot all season. Tonight, everything just clicked.”
From the opening tip, it was clear Williams had no intention of easing into the game. He nailed his first triple just seconds in and followed it up with a heat-check that splashed from NBA range. The opposing defense threw traps, switches, and zones at him — none of it mattered.
By halftime, he had already poured in 21 points, and with every made basket, the crowd grew louder, sensing they were witnessing something special. Tulane head coach Ron Hunter couldn’t hold back his excitement.
“Kam has that it factor,” Hunter said. “This wasn’t just a hot hand — this was a statement. He’s the future of this program.”
Williams’ performance not only powered Tulane to a crucial conference win but also elevated his profile on the national stage. NBA scouts, analysts, and college hoops fans alike took to social media in awe, some comparing his quick trigger and smooth release to that of Steph Curry.
The win secured Tulane a favorable seed in the upcoming conference tournament and gave the Green Wave faithful hope that this season could be something more than just a rebuilding year.
For Kam Williams, it was more than just a game — it was a coming-out party.
“I’m just getting started,” he said with a grin. “There’s a lot more work to do, but I’ll remember this one forever.”
If this is just the beginning for Kam Williams, the future of Tulane basketbal
l is blindingly bright.
