The Golden State Warriors have inked Nate Williams to their open two-way spot, according to  NBA Insider Jake Fischer.

“The Golden State Warriors are signing Nate Williams of the Long Island Nets to a two-way contract, according to league sources,” Fischer tweeted.

The deal became official earlier this afternoon.

Warriors Steal Slashing Wing From Underneath Nets’ Nose

Williams, who has 47 NBA games of experience, spent this past season in the G League with the Nets, where he thrived. Willams averaged 18.4 points on 47.2% percent shooting, but perhaps more importantly, he drained a career-high two three-pointers at a 36.5% clip.  The 27-year-old also averaged six rebounds (2.7 offensive), 2.5 assists, and 1.8 steals.

Williams, not known as an elite scorer, has been extremely consistent offensively this year. Williams scored in double-figures in 33 of 35 games with 16 20-point games and two 30-point efforts. He also produced two double-doubles. Ball-handling and fouling are concerns.

This is the third minor league deal that Williams has signed since going undrafted out of Buffalo in 2022. His two previous two-way deals were with Houston. Additionally, Williams has inked two standard contracts, one with Portland and one with Houston.

After playing with Houston’s 2025 summer league squad, he was released by the Rockets. He ultimately landed with the Los Angeles Lakers on an Exhibit 10 and appeared in five preseason games. After being waived by the Lakers, he was assigned to the G League South Bay Lakers but was immediately traded to the Long Island Nets.  The Lakers received Drew Timme and a 2027 first-round pick in the G-League draft.

Since Williams was not on an NBA contract with Brooklyn, he was essentially a free agent. This allowed the Warriors to acquire him without compensation. Teams have until March 4 tp sign players t a tw-way contract.

Since Golden State had an open two-way slot after promoting Pat Spencer to a standard contract, no subsequent move was needed.  Williams joins Malevy Leons and LJ Cryer with minor league pacts.
