Tom Westerholm: Asked about the competitive camp at the Celtics’ fan fest, Kyrie Irving points out the Celtics only have one rookie, “and his talent is through the roof.” On the bench, Semi Ojeleye elbows Robert Williams a bunch of times.
Abby Chin: After a couple missteps to start his #Celtics career, Robert Williams told me he got here really early today. Said he knew the #Pats were playing and didn’t want to deal with in traffic. When I told him Foxboro isn’t close to here, he said, “ I didn’t want to take any chances!”
Tom Westerholm: Brad Stevens: “Rob Williams is a pretty unique guy, the way he can switch.” Says his effort level from the start has been really good.
Mark Murphy: What impresses Horford the most about rookie Robert Williams? “His ability to have impact on the ball. His ability to contest and change people’s shots. That’s a huge strength of his already. Big reason why it wouldn’t surprise me if he gets more playing time because of that. “
