Robert Williams III is on a rookie contract and signed an extension that is to begin the following season. Therefore, he has what is known as a "poison pill" contract. He can no longer be traded for a player making equal money. Instead, his current salary is averaged along with the salaries he is to receive in his extension, and that average becomes his incoming salary for trade purposes. His outgoing value for the Celtics will be $3.6M while his incoming value for the receiving team will be $10.3M.
Team Option
Robert Williams III currently has a team option for the Celtics this season. The Celtics may decide to decline their option which would make him an unrestricted free agent. You may accept or decline this option, by default it will be accepted. You may also update his contract to perform actions such as a Sign & Trade.
Robert Williams III cannot be traded because ~6 months (slightly shorter this year) have not passed since he was signed to an extension. He will be eligible to be traded after Jan 30, 2022.
