Michael Carter-Williams is a guard for Syracuse basketball. He was talk and lanky, with excellent ball handling skills. He was a McDonald's All-American out of high school.

Carter-Williams showed a lot of promise his freshman year, especially with his ball handling, with 54 assists and only 16 turnovers. He was unfortunately a freshman guard sitting behind three talented upper classmen in Scoop Jardine, Brandon Triche and Dion Waiters. It was actually quite a compliment to him that he was getting playing time. He did not have too many opportunities in clutch moments, but came up really big with a couple of nice three point shots in a close UConn game. His baskets turned the momentum of the game, and the Orange were off running for the win. He played most of the season, but did not see any playing time in the post season as coach Jim Boeheim favored his experienced players.
