Grant Williams News
The Dallas Mavericks are acquiring forward Grant Williams in a three-way sign-and-trade deal on Wednesday. The 24-year-old restricted free agent wasn't allowed to sign offer sheets until July 6th, but the teams found a way around it. Williams has reportedly agreed to a contract worth $54 million over four years. In exchange, the Celtics will receive two future second-round picks for Williams. Also, the San Antonio Spurs receive Reggie Bullock and an unprotected pick swap with the Mavericks in 2030. This was a good move for the Celtics who had Williams stuck in an inconsistent role in Boston. Last season, he averaged a career-high 8.1 points and 4.6 rebounds in 25.9 minutes per game. He should be able to find himself with a better role in Dallas, which will hopefully lead to reliable fantasy value.
Restricted free-agent power forward Grant Williams is receiving interest from the Atlanta Hawks, Charlotte Hornets, Dallas Mavericks, and New York Knicks, per Jared Weiss of The Athletic. With the Boston Celtics exploring sign-and-trade scenarios, the team reportedly wants a first-round pick in return for the 24-year-old. It's a steep cost for Williams, who recorded a somewhat efficient, yet pedestrian 8.1 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 1.5 threes on 39.5% shooting from deep across 25.9 minutes per game last season. The former first-rounder represents a versatile defender and decent spot-up wing, but Boston might be hard pressed to find a suitor for their price.
Boston Celtics forward Grant Williams has been drawing a ton of buzz recently as he's set to become a restricted free agent this summer. The 24-year-old is coming off hand surgery, but it doesn't appear that's going to impact his value. Williams has been a key contributor for this championship contending roster for multiple seasons. However, the organization might not need Williams if they finalize this trade to acquire big man Kristaps Porzingis. That being said, the Celtics might be willing to do a sign-and-trade with Williams in order to upgrade their team in other areas. Honestly, a move elsewhere might be good for the fantasy value of Williams.
Boston Celtics forward Grant Williams is set to become a restricted free agent this summer. The 24-year-old underwent hand surgery in June, but that shouldn't impact his value in free agency. In fact, multiple teams have already reached out to the Celtics regarding a possible sign-and-trade with Williams. Early in his career, Williams has shown the ability to be a key contributor on a championship caliber team. He averaged 8.1 points, 4.6 rebounds, and 1.7 assists across 25.9 minutes per game this past season. Williams not might be a superstar, but he can certainly contribute at a high level. His fantasy value will be dependent on where he ends up this offseason.
