Nolan "Nonie" Williams (born May 22, 1998) is an American former professional baseball shortstop.
Williams was home-schooled,[1][2] but took one class at Turner High School in Kansas City, Kansas, in order to be eligible to play baseball for their team,[1][2] where he was Kansas Class 5A Player of the Year in 2015.[3] He reclassified to the college class of 2016 and accepted a baseball scholarship from Louisiana State University.[2][3] After the Los Angeles Angels selected him in the third round of the 2016 Major League Baseball draft, using the 96th overall pick,[1][2] he signed with the Angels for an above-slot bonus and began his professional career.[4]
Before the start of the 2017 season, MLB.com prospect analyst Jonathan Mayo ranked Williams as the 13th-best prospect in the Angels' farm system.[5] He was released on June 5, 2020.
Williams is a switch hitter.[2]
