Other than Bojan Bogdanovic, the Brooklyn Nets big acquisition this summer has been Ziaire Williams, the 6’9” small forward acquired in a July 19 trade with the Memphis Grizzlies. He talked with Hoopshype about what he hopes to add to the Nets.
It can be argued that the Brooklyn Nets acquisition of Ziaire Williams, the 6’9” small forward picked up in a July 19 trade with the Memphis Grizzlies, amounts to a secondary benefit of the Mikal Bridges deal with the Knicks.
Two weeks after the Bridges deal was completed, Brooklyn traded Mamadi Diakite, a 28-year-old journeyman the Nets got from New York, to Memphis for the 22-year-old former lottery pick — along with a second rounder in 2030.
