Mikey Williams is an American basketball player who is believed to be one of the brightest future NBA players. He presently attends San Ysidro High School in San Diego, California, and is the number 3 pick in the 2023 class. Williams is also seen as the face of the future since he now enjoys a following of 2.5 million on Instagram. He is followed by celebrities and athletes such as Kevin Durant and Drake.
Perhaps Williams’ strongest accolade is that he is ‘better than Lebron James.’ Comparisons don’t get better than that, but the negative is that there is an immense burden on the little boy’s shoulders. So far, he seems to be managing the pressure and is prepared to deliver on his tremendous promise.
Where was Mikey Williams born? Ethnicity, Nationality, Family
Mikey was born on 26th June 2004 to Charisse and Mahlon Williams. Mahlon was a basketball player at Sweetwater High School, while Charisse played softball in high school and university.
Mikey showed interest in basketball when he was very young. Contrary to popular opinion, it is Mikey’s mom and not his dad, who first trained Mikey. Mikey remarked in an interview with Overtime, “My mom truly taught me basketball. A lot of people think it’s my dad, but my mom taught me how to dribble, how to shoot, all of that stuff.”
Mahlon started teaching Mikey when he noticed that his kid had star potential
As a child, Mikey’s dad was regarded to be one of the best players in the NBA but he got involved with gangs and went to jail
Mikey is an amazing basketball player, yet at Mikey’s age, Mahlon is claimed to have been better than his son. Mahlon was a star player, and he was predicted to break records in the NBA. However, before making the step up, he became caught up with gangs that impeded his growth. Mahlon told Overtime:
“I got into the whole gang element and ended up getting locked up, did ten months, made some blunders in my life, you know what I mean? I have been through some harsh experiences, yet we all live. We live we learn.”
Mikey has the potential to do what his dad couldn’t by making it to the NBA. He has a greater chance than his dad because he is surrounded by favorable influences. One of Mikey’s biggest objectives is getting to uplift his family in the way that Lebron James did. Mahlon told Overtime:
“He’s actually taking a page out of Lebron’s book. He wants to be able to build that similar atmosphere for his kids and his parents that Lebron has built for his kids and his parents.”
