japanese willow died

we had a beautiful 3 year old Japanese willow which died this spring. it was in a rather wet corner of out yard and when we pulled it out it had a very small root ball. The area we live in is seashore and very windy. We suspect the tree was blown out of the ground because the ground was so wet. It’s trunk was definitely on an angle. We loved this tree but are hesitant to plant another one there for fear of the same outcome. Any suggestions for replacement or, if putting in another how to prevent the same result?
