Nets Officially Re‑Sign Ziaire Williams to Multiyear Deal

The cost‑controlled deal preserves cap flexibility after a career‑best season for the former No. 10 pick.

Overview

  • Brooklyn announced the multiyear agreement without releasing terms, confirming earlier reports that a deal was in place.
  • Prior reporting indicated a two‑year pact near $12 million with a second‑year team option, with one outlet citing $12.5 million as the total value.
  • Williams delivered 10.0 points and 4.6 rebounds over 63 games last season, lifted his three‑point rate to 34.1 percent, and showed defensive versatility.
  • Hoops Rumors projects the Nets still hold just over $16 million in cap space plus access to an $8.8 million room exception, with more room possible by waiving non‑guaranteed deals.
  • Whether the contract includes a waived trade‑veto right remains unconfirmed, and Brooklyn’s crowded wing group will require roster cuts before the regular season.
