He was averaging like 30/ 20/ 15 a game. Shit is disgusting to think a guy this talented didn't get one offer even from a D 3 school!! what the fuck

He had game! I remember one episode where a scholarship came down to him and a guy with a kid, and Will basically threw the game so the other guy got the offer. Speaks volumes of the ethical standards he lived his life by.

Will joined the Marines so he could shoot down Aliens.

I actually heard the scouts were unimpressed with Will after they saw Carlton steal the ball from him on that last second half court shot.

They weren't playing on a regular sized court.

Which probably explains Will's ability to grab the jump ball in mid-air and launch a perfectly executed jump shot into the basket before reaching back down to the ground.

He was damn good. Too bad he got soft and allowed a baby's daddy to outshine him. That's probably why he went into singing.

I never understood why shows like this never used a real basketball court and extras that actually looked like they could shoot a basketball!

Maybe I'm dumb, but I don't know what you're talking about. Who is Will and where is he from?

Will is from Bel-Air. How could you not know that?

But seeing this clip reminds me of Steve. He should just be finishing up his NBA career right now. He goes from water boy to High School star.

Filming outside the studio is very expensive (for a myriad of reasons...), especially back when this show was being filmed.

Although he averaged many points per game, you have to question the talent level on the floor. I mean Carlton was also a starter on his team?

I believe Will signed a contract with an agent,making him ineligible for a college scholarship.
