At No. 27, the Brooklyn Nets will receive a steal in Tennessee’s Grant Williams. Williams is your perfect fit as a modern day small-ball center yet also an adequate forward in nearly any system. He is a strong workhorse that is not afraid to the dirty work for a team in order to notch victories. Williams is a great complementary player as he steps onto the NBA scene.

With the Brooklyn Nets coming off a positive season – one which saw them earn a postseason bid – this is a move that will boost them to achieve greater heights in the 2019-20 season. In considering the Nets are likely to snag one or two tier-one free agents this offseason, Grant Williams is the type of player an NBA team wishes to round out a bench unit and roster with.

Though he may not achieve All-Star status, do not be surprised to see Williams turn out to be one of the league’s greatest role players and high motor guys.
