Suns guarantee Alan Williams' contract

Former California-Santa Barbara star Alan Williams has a guaranteed contract with his hometown Suns.

Williams played the final five weeks of last season with the Suns and his contract became guaranteed at 2 p.m. Thursday once the Suns kept him on the roster for $874,636 next season.

“It was an easy decision for us,” Suns General Manager Ryan McDonough said.

Williams is the Suns’ 14th player with a guaranteed contract for next season. They can carry up to 15 players in the regular season.
