2026 five-star Cam Williams was set to visit Kentucky from Sept. 26-28, but due to his flight being rescheduled, he will no longer be on campus this weekend, his father tells KSR+. Williams is working to reschedule the visit.
“It was due to airline issues,” His father, Charles Williams, said via text. “We are working on getting the visit rescheduled. He will visit Kentucky!”
The 6-foot-10, 200-pound power forward from St Mary’s (Phoenix, AZ) has already taken recent trips to SMU, Texas, and Purdue. He has upcoming trips planned to Duke, USC, and Arizona.
“I like how they put guys in the league,” Williams told KSR+ after earning an offer from Kentucky in July. “They have a lot of big names who are playing currently, like SGA, KAT, and AD. They have a long list of really good pros. I like how they play as a team. I watched a couple of their games last year. Obviously, they’re one of the top teams. It’s a school I could see myself fitting in at, playing there, and all of that stuff.”
Gaining National Attention on the 3SSB Circuit
Cam Williams caught the attention of Mark Pope and the Kentucky staff during the adidas 3SSB circuit with the Compton Magic over the summer. There, he played alongside 2027 No. 1-ranked prospect Bruce Branch III. It was during that time that Williams was able to earn an offer from the Cats.

“It was good. Mark [Pope] was trying to get to know my parents,” Williams said at the time. “He was telling us how I’d fit into the program and all of that stuff. He was telling me about the history.”
