Since FA starts before they need to make a decision on Williams I think that works in his favor. I believe players can only agree to verbal deals in that first week but virtually all big name free agents do come to terms on a deal in those first couple of days. So the Suns should know whether they need that cap space or not by the time his contract needs to be guaranteed. Not ideal for him but he signed the deal knowing what could happen.
I'm not deadset on letting him go either. I would be surprised if he's retained though. I think they can spend the money a bit more wisely but it's questionable if they'll be able to do that.
