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.
- •Williams' extension includes $14 million guaranteed in Year 1.
- •Year 2 has a $5 million guarantee contingent on games played.
- •Year 3 is entirely non-guaranteed, dependent on performance.
- •Contract reflects the team's strategy considering Williams' injury history.
