The Celtics have struggled in Robert Williams’ absence, but they may not be without the athletic big man for much longer, according to head coach Joe Mazzulla.
Sacramento is the last stop on the Celtics' six-game road trip, and Williams recently expressed a desire to play on the road trip before the team returns home to face the Indiana Pacers next Friday. He also doesn't want to rush the process, though.
"It’s obviously something I want to do, but just trying to check these boxes and make sure straight," Williamslast Saturday."It’s kind of tricky, because you can feel great and then get out there and do one hard move and get the pain back, so just trying to watch it." While the Celtics should be cautious with the athletic big man, they could also use him back in the lineup. The C's rank 21st in the NBA in offensive rebound percentage in Williams' absence and have allowed 53.3 points per game in the paint in that span, 22nd in the NBA.
Boston has been in a mini funk since the All-Star break, and Williams could help the team snap out of that funk by bringing energy on both ends of the floor.
