The former No. 10 overall pick might be able to realize his upside in Brooklyn.
The Brooklyn Nets traded Mamadi Diakite to the Memphis Grizzlies in return for Ziaire Williams and a 2030 second-round pick . They shipped the 6-foot-9 forward to Memphis as they acquired a young asset in Williams along with a draft pick.
Formerly teammates with Bronny James at Sierra Canyon, Williams played a lone season at Stanford, showing enough to potential to end up being a lottery pick. After averaging 8.1 points in 21.7 minutes per game during his rookie season, the forward had a down second season which was disrupted by injuries.
The now-Nets forward is still a raw prospect, despite having spent three seasons in the NBA. Again, he's just 22-years-old and now joining a great situation for himself.
