Chami was one of many talented backcourt players at Pike High School this season. Still, though, she was able to carve out a solid role on a team that was highly ranked all season. Ben Davis was rather young, starting three Freshmen much of the year, but Chami should help them immediately. She has big-time grassroots experience to lean on, plus she is a really nice athlete, she can handle it and run offense from time to time. Additionally, she is a very good defender, both in terms of her effort and understanding. She will be one to keep an eye on next year.

As is the case with many of the Pike underclassmen, the Red Devils are just loaded with talent right now, so they are getting glimpses of Varsity action while they prepare for bigger moments in the future. Chami should be primed for a big Junior year at Pike, as she is a talented athlete, with strength, toughness, and good all-around skill. She is a legitimate multilevel scorer who can make shots outside (36% from ‘3’) or get downhill and finish at the basket through contact. She’s also a high-level defender who can frustrate opposing ball-handlers. She has drawn quite a bit of attention this Spring.

After watching three games of Chami “Mimi” Williams at Live at the Lakepoint, it became very clear that she is a true competitor. Williams consistently brought energy and toughness on both sides of the basketball while making winning plays throughout each game.

Offensively, she had an outstanding start to the tournament. Williams opened the event with a strong 24-point performance in Game 1, followed it up with 23 points in Game 2, and added another 17 points in Game 3. Her scoring ability was on full display as she attacked the basket aggressively, played through contact, and found ways to create offense in big moments.

What stood out most was her willingness to do whatever her team needed to win. She was not just focused on scoring, but also making the right reads and putting teammates in great positions offensively. Defensively, her competitiveness and effort continued to show throughout all three games as she stayed active and brought consistent intensity.

Williams played with confidence and never looked afraid of the moment. Her ability to impact the game in multiple ways made her one of the more impressive performers watched online during the event. With the way she competed and produced offensively, Chami “Mimi” Williams continues to prove she is a player worth keeping a close eye on moving forward.

Chami made difficult plays look very easy on the offensive end finishing through contact and over and around defenders in the paint. She plays with a lot of poise and patience and did a nice job picking the right spots and times to attack the defense. United NJ had no solution defensively to keeping MiMi out of the paint where she did damage the entire game for TJ Perry’s WV Thunder team. She didn’t waste a lot of time with flashy moves, just made one or two to draw the defender closer or to get them to back off, before attacking the basket with smooth fluidity. Her finishes at the rim were on the move and in traffic, but Williams converted them with ease. She had multiple finishes with And One opportunities and could have scored more if she were not such an unselfish player. She is a very talented kid that I look forward to seeing play again soon.

I first saw Chami Williams Chami Williams 5'8" | SG Ben Davis | 2028 State IN play during the Sophomore Showcase last September, where she stood out as one of the top performers. That confidence and production translated once again in Pike’s matchup against Zionsville.

Coming off the bench, Williams was one of Pike’s most impactful players, finishing with 10 points while knocking down every shot she attempted. While her ability to score the basketball is evident, what stands out most is the confidence she plays with. She trusts her game, takes quality shots, and delivers in key moments.
