The Brooklyn Nets acquired forward Ziaire Williams and a second-round pick in the 2030 NBA Draft from the Memphis Grizzlies on Friday.
The Grizzlies received forward Mamadi Diakite and the draft rights to 31-year-old Serbian wing Nemanja Dangubic, the 54th overall pick of the 2014 NBA Draft. Diakite was dealt to the Nets on July 6 in the trade that sent forward Mikal Bridges to the New York Knicks.
The 2030 second-round pick is via the Dallas Mavericks. The Grizzlies reportedly are working toward re-signing guard Luke Kennard to fill out their roster.
Williams, 22, averaged 8.2 points, 3.5 rebounds and 1.5 assists in 51 games (15 starts) last season. He has contributed 7.5 points, 2.6 boards and 1.2 assists in 150 career games (50 starts) since he was selected with the 10th overall pick of the 2021 NBA Draft out of Stanford.
Diakite, 27, averaged 2.0 points in six games off the bench last season split between the San Antonio Spurs and Knicks. He has played for five teams since entering the NBA during the 2020-21 campaign.
