He still has 1 more year of eligibility left for 2-ways due to the Harry Giles rule. Mavs still have 1 more two-way spot available
By waiving B-Will, Mavs open up about 3.6mil of space under the 2nd apron. Just enough for a vet min signing.
FWIW
“To encourage teams to sign veterans, players with three-or-more years of experience who minimum-salary contracts will only count for $2,296,274 against the salary cap—the minimum salary for a player with two years of experience.”
Brandon Williams' contract with the Dallas Mavericks has structured guarantee thresholds. $200,000 becomes guaranteed on July 7, $850,000 on opening night, and the rest becomes fully guaranteed if he's on the roster through January 10, 2026.
