The Boston Celtics did not expect to start their 2022-23 campaign without their starting big man Robert Williams III, but after a lengthy recuperation for a cleanup surgery on the knee he tore a meniscus at the end of the last season, the Timelord is finally back on the court with the Celtics.
To start the Texas A&M product down the path he needs to be on to get his conditioning and familiarity with this iteration of the ball club under his belt after such a long absence, Williams has been coming off of the bench with no evident qualms about doing so. But a recent spate of suboptimal play has some fans thinking that perhaps Boston interim head coach Joe Mazzulla might be able to use the Louisiana native more effectively.
