Grant Williams is a strong, smart 3-and-D forward whose value comes from spacing the floor and defending bigger players than his size suggests. The 22nd pick in 2019 out of Tennessee, he became a reliable rotation piece for the Boston Celtics, knocking down corner threes and taking on tough matchups, before moves to Dallas and Charlotte. His 2025-26 season with the Hornets was shortened by recovery from a torn ACL — 36 games at 7.0 points on a solid 38.8% from three after a January debut. Across more than 400 career games he has been a dependable role player, and his shooting, physicality and basketball IQ keep him useful as he works back to full strength.
