Ziaire Williams is a rangy, versatile wing whose calling card is defense across multiple positions. The 10th overall pick in 2021 out of Stanford, he stands 6-foot-9 with a near 7-foot wingspan, and after an uneven start in Memphis he rebuilt his value with the Brooklyn Nets — averaging a career-high 10.2 points with 1.4 steals a night in 2025-26 while shooting a career-best 34.3% from three. His ability to guard nearly anyone on the floor is why teams keep investing in him; the swing skill remains his efficiency. After the season he agreed to a one-year deal with the Los Angeles Lakers, betting on his defense and length in a bigger market.
