Warriors add Williams on a one‑year deal

The Golden State Warriors have strengthened their roster with the addition of Brandon Williams, who has agreed to a one‑year, $2.6 million contract, according to ESPN’s Shams Charania. The figure aligns with the minimum salary for a player entering his fifth NBA season, though it remains unclear whether the deal is fully guaranteed. Williams is expected to become the fourteenth player on Golden State’s standard roster. The 26‑year‑old point guard arrives after his best NBA campaign, having earned consistent minutes with the Dallas Mavericks during the 2025/26 season.

He appeared in 66 games, starting 15, and averaged 13 points, 3.9 assists and 2.9 rebounds in 22.2 minutes. His three‑point shooting remains a concern at 23.2%, but he was efficient inside the arc at 55.2%. Williams joins a backcourt featuring Stephen Curry, Brandin Podziemski, De’Anthony Melton and Gary Payton II, providing additional ball‑handling as Golden State continues to fill out its roster.
