Williams signed a two-year contract with Brooklyn, with a second-year option, and waived his no-trade clause. This deal, reportedly around $12.5 million, recognizes his best NBA season to date (10.0 PPG, 4.6 RPG, 1.3 APG in 63 games) and signals Nets’ trust in him as a versatile wing. His fit hinges on shooting efficiency and defense in a crowded Nets rotation, offering a path to a meaningful role.

Williams’ re-signing gives Brooklyn a youthful, flexible foundation to build around cap space and future assets. His development provides a long-term floor for the Nets, while allowing for mid-season experimentation as cap plans evolve around potential stars and tax considerations.

Williams, acquired from Memphis, posted 10.0 PPG, 4.6 RPG and 1.3 APG in 63 games, shooting a career-best 34.1% from three and showing defensive growth with top-asset assignments. His two-year, team-friendly deal adds defensive versatility and wing depth to Brooklyn's rotation.

Williams signed a two-year, $12.5M extension, securing Nets’ forward depth and providing a reliable two-way presence as Brooklyn builds around a youthful core. His deal also allows cap-space maneuvering, enabling the Nets to add veterans or later upgrades while preserving upside.

Williams brings length and shooting, but minutes are contended with Porter Jr. and Thomas. His ability to slot into wings and guard multiple positions could propel him into Brooklyn’s regular rotation if he shines in camp; otherwise, he faces a crowded bench and two-way uncertainty.
