The Dallas Mavericks didn't trumpet the decision from the mountains. They didn't paste it all over social media. They didn't ride stallions through the streets of Dallas to ensure everyone knew. Yet quietly, they made an important decision on Wednesday to keep Brandon Williams in a Mavericks uniform, hopefully for a very long time.
The path that Williams has taken into the NBA has been a circuitous one. After playing for the Arizona Wildcats, the 6'1" point guard went undrafted in the 2021 NBA Draft and entered the G League. COVID protocols gave him a few 10-day contracts, but he didn't make a real impact on the league.
