Restricted Boston Celtics free agent Grant Williams has been lying low since the season ended for the most part, but made an appearance at a Fanatics event where he spoke a bit on the Marcus Smart trade. The Charlotte native revealed (via the Boston Globe’s Gary Washburn) that it was “something that definitely hurts a little bit.”
“Just because you’ve been with someone so long and he’s a phenomenal person,” added Williams. “He has as much heart and passion as anyone across this entire organization. We trust (team president) Brad (Stevens) and we have to not really hold too much against (the trade) because we know Marcus is going to be great wherever he goes.”
