Overview
- Boston signed 23-year-old Amari Williams, its No. 46 pick in the 2025 NBA Draft, to a two-way contract on August 15, according to the NBA’s transaction log.
- His deal pays up to $636,435 if he spends the full season on two-way status and allows him to appear in a maximum of 50 regular-season games.
- The Celtics filled their three two-way slots with Williams after waiving Miles Norris, joining fellow two-way players Max Shulga and RJ Luis Jr.
- Williams spent four seasons at Drexel before transferring to Kentucky, where he averaged 10.9 points, 8.5 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 1.2 blocks over 36 games last season.
- Standing at nearly 7 feet with strong court vision and playmaking skills, Williams will primarily develop with the Maine Celtics while competing for minutes in a frontcourt thinned by recent departures.
