Lou Williams was named as Sixth Man of the Year last season for the third time in five years, and the veteran star enters the new season in a strong position to retain his title.

Set to turn 33 later this year, Williams' performances during the 18-19 season were among the best of his career, and the guard was able to take home the Sixth Man award despite averaging just over 25 minutes per contest.

The addition of Paul Goerge and Kawhi Leonard also puts the Clippers in the position to contend for a title, and neither All-Star will hinder Williams' influence from the Los Angeles' reserve unit. Ultimately, everything is in place for the Williams to take home the award for a third consecutive season, and few will bet against the veteran star.
