While his self-anointed nickname may not be resonating quite as well as he had hoped, Boston Celtics forward Grant “Batman” Williams‘ game made a case for the Tennessee product to have super powers of some sort regardless of the nickname debate in the Celtics’ 132 – 123 road win over the Oklahoma City Thunder at Paycom Center on Monday night.
Despite it being the second half of a back-to-back with two starters out, Williams seemed unphased as he stepped into the role of a starter and put up an impressive, career-high 20 points, 10 rebounds, an assist, and a block in 38 minutes of playing time. The former Vol standout shot 7-of-14 from the field, a not-so-great 1-of-4 from beyond the arc, and 5-of-6 from the charity stripe while only fouling twice with no turnovers.
