Robert Williams III highlights: Celtics center gets 9 points, 5 boards in return vs. Magic
While the Boston Celtics made his return something of a flop as they lost their third game in four tilts on Friday night, dropping a game to a rising Orlando Magic squad 117-109, the return of Boston big man Robert Williams III was a solid one overall, with the Texas A&M alum looking bouncy and locked in — maybe even a little TOO locked in — as he picked up all 3 of his personal fouls in the contest early in his first stint on the floor.
Timelord put up a very respectable 9 points, 5 rebounds, an assist, a steal, and as many blocks in 18 minutes of game time, going a perfect 4-of-4 from the floor and hitting 1-of-2 attempts from the charity stripe with just 1 turnover in his return.
To see how Williams played again (or for some of you, the first time) since coming back from his offseason cleanup surgery, take a look at the clip embedded below from the folks at the Bllen YouTube channel.
