After this season, everything is on the table. While Williams didn’t have the best roster to work with (and injuries didn’t make things any better), he, along with everyone involved, played a part in Detroit’s epic losing skid that continued beyond Christmas. For one, he started 2020 No. 7 pick Killian Hayes for the bulk of the team’s first 30 games. The Pistons were open to trading or moving on from Hayes last summer, per team and league sources. By every metric, he was one of the least efficient scorers not just currently in the NBA, but also in the history of the game. However, Hayes’ 6-foot-5 frame, ball movement and sometimes passable defense intrigued Williams from afar, and the coach wanted a chance to try to revive the former lottery pick’s career. Hayes has been out of the NBA since Detroit waived him on Feb. 8.
