Guess it was right he was present

Congrats to Ziaire! Stanford's first lottery pick since Brook Lopez!


RE: Ziaire Williams goes #10 - martyup - 07-29-2021

He made the 40 week decision to enroll at Stanford.

apparently not a Pelican for long....

Quote:The Memphis Grizzlies selected Stanford forward Ziaire Williams with the No. 10 pick in the 2021 NBA Draft on Thursday.

The New Orleans Pelicans formally made the pick, but it will head to Memphis pending the approval of their trade sending Jonas Valanciunas and the No. 17 pick to the Pelicans in exchange for Steven Adams and Eric Bledsoe.

Stanford's first half season and done. My son works for the Grizz. Young club on the rise.

I wish him more success than he enjoyed at Stanford.

Good for him.  The great ones never lack for confidence.
Wishing him the best, though it wouldn't shock me if it takes a while for Ziaire to make an impact (i.e., regular player 20+ minutes) in the NBA.

Nice moment for Ziaire and for the program.

Keep your eye on the late second round.  Oscar Da Silva worked out pre-draft for several teams.  I'm not expecting to hear his name called, but I wouldn't be shocked if it happens.


RE: Ziaire Williams goes #10 - 76lsjumb - 07-29-2021

His career with the New Orleans Pelicans was almost as long as his career at Stanford...

Good one!

Super happy for Zaire. Would be fabulous for him to chip away at his degree while playing. 

Stanford has a great history of one-and-dones having success. Mostly with startups, but I am hoping for a great basketball success.

Starting with a bang

But will he be able to afford the high tuition? cf. TT

Ziaire will make Terry's entire contract amount in his first year.


RE: Ziaire Williams goes #10 - BobK - 08-12-2021

Actually $4.37M is slightly less than $4.6M. Just saying. Your point is good of course

Picked up by the Nets this offseason, Ziaire has three straight double digit scoring games including 17 in a revenge game victory over Memphis and has helped the tanking Nets to a 3-3 record (going to need a little less effort to capture the Flagg) by being a spark off the bench.
