You may remember that in 2025, Charlotte tried to trade Mark Williams to the Los Angeles Lakers, but they canceled the trade after a physical uncovered some problems they had not been aware of. Later that year, he was successfully traded to the Phoenix Suns, where he is now teammates with fellow Brotherhood members Grayson Allen and Khaman Maluach.
Williams and Maluach give Phoenix a tough pair of big men inside. Maluach is probably the future for the Suns, but Williams is still just 24 and has a lot to offer.
Last season, he averaged 11.7 ppg, 8.0 rebounds, an assist, and a shade under a block.
Whatever health issues he had are apparently behind him, as Phoenix plans to retain him, offering a three-year extension for $38 million.
However, with Maluach and Oso Ighodaro both developing, at some point the Suns may have to move one of their three bigs, and as of now, Williams, with a larger contract might be the logical candidate when the younger guys are ready.
