The Brooklyn Nets announced Wednesday they have waived center Alan Williams, who had joined the club on a two-way contract just before the start of training camp in late September.
Williams had not appeared in a game for Brooklyn this season and was on the active list just once, the Dec. 26 double-overtime victory over the Charlotte Hornets last week.
According to Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN, Williams requested his release in order to finalize a deal in the Chinese Basketball Association.
