Lakers sign Ziaire Williams to one-year, $3 million deal
The move gives Los Angeles another wing addition as it continues shaping its roster
Ziaire Williams has agreed to join the Lakers on a one-year contract worth $3 million.
The Los Angeles Lakers have agreed to sign forward Ziaire Williams to a one-year, $3 million contract, adding another piece to their roster for the upcoming season.
Williams arrives after the Lakers filled out more of their frontcourt earlier in the offseason, and the new deal gives the team another athletic wing option to work into the rotation.
The agreement was first reported on Monday and puts Williams in position to join a Lakers group that has continued to reshape itself around short-term moves and flexible contracts.
Williams, a former first-round pick, gives Los Angeles a player with size on the perimeter and another option on the wing as the franchise keeps adjusting its depth chart.
The deal is for one season and carries a modest financial commitment, which fits the Lakers’ recent pattern of adding players on manageable contracts while preserving room for future moves
