Alan “Big Sauce” Williams has reportedly found a new team in the Eastern Conference.

According to ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski, Williams has agreed to a two-way contract with the Brooklyn Nets.

A 6-foot-8, 265-pound center, Williams played five games for the Phoenix Suns at the tail-end of the 2017-18 season after undergoing surgery to repair a torn meniscus prior to the start of the year.

He averaged 4.0 points, 4.4 rebounds and 1.6 assists in 14 minutes over that span.

A product out of UC Santa Barbara, Williams grew up in Phoenix and attended North High School.

He earned a spot on the roster as an undrafted rookie in 2015-16, playing in 10 games before appearing in 47 games the next season.

During his second season, Williams averaged 7.4 points and 6.2 rebounds per game while ranking 11th in rebounding percentage for the 2016-17 season.
