Robert Williams' extension has limited guarantees beyond first year
Summary

Robert Williams' contract extension with the team is structured with specific guarantees. For the 2026-27 season, Williams is guaranteed $14 million, but in the following year, only $5 million is guaranteed. That amount becomes fully guaranteed if he plays 50 games this season. The third year is non-guaranteed but also turns fully guaranteed if he meets the same game-play requirement in the 2027-28 season. This structure reflects the team's cautious approach amid injury concerns.
