Phoenix Re-Signs Williams for Stability

Phoenix re-signs Mark Williams to a three-year, $38M deal, keeping a key piece of their roster intact after similar moves for Gillespie and Goodwin. Williams, acquired via trade last summer, played a career-high 60 games last season and started 55, despite late-season injuries. Seen as a smart, tradeable asset, he’s expected to start but could slide into a backup role or be moved as younger centers like Maluach develop. While fans hoped for a bigger offseason splash, the Suns are prioritizing continuity, health, and youth development, aiming for a top-six seed. Williams’ $12.6M average salary ranks him 24th among centers, and he can’t be traded until Jan 15, 2027. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
