  • Robert Williams III Ruled Out For Injury Management Wednesday

    Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee injury management) will not play Wednesday against the New Orleans Pelicans. With the Celtics heading into a back-to-back set, Boston will choose to sit Williams on Wednesday while he continues to work his way back to game shape. With Williams out, Al Horford should see most of the center minutes with Grant Williams picking up some extra minutes.

  • Robert Williams III Expected To Play On Thursday

    Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee) is not on the injury report ahead of Thursday's game against the Dallas Mavericks. The big man was held out of Tuesday's game due to left knee injury management. It sounds like his absence was rest related, so he shouldn't be limited on Thursday. His return will mean less playing time for Blake Griffin and Luke Kornet. Neither of them are worth streaming while Williams is active.

  • Robert Williams III Ruled Out Tuesday Against OKC

    Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (injury management) will not play Tuesday against the Oklahoma City Thunder. Williams is likely being sat due to rest as the Celtics look to limit his reps. Blake Griffin and Luke Kornet should see an uptick in minutes on Tuesday but both are just low-end options. Williams will look to get back on to the court the next time Boston plays on Thursday against the Dallas Mavericks

  • Robert Williams III Listed As Questionable Tuesday

    Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (injury management) is questionable to play against the Oklahoma City Thunder. The Celtics are likely looking to manage the reps of Williams as he works his way back to game shape, but this game is not in the midst of a back-to-back set. If Williams were to sit, Blake Griffin and Luke Kornet would likely see a boost in value.

  • Robert Williams III Available Against Nuggets

    Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (illness) is available to play Sunday against the Denver Nuggets. Williams was questionable with an illness, but appears to not be affected by any lingering symptoms. With Williams good to go, there is not much fantasy opportunity to go around for backups Blake Griffin and Luke Kornet.

  • Robert Williams III Uncertain For Sunday

    Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (illness) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Denver Nuggets. He was added to the injury report here because he's dealing with a non-COVID related illness. His absence would open up more playing time for Luke Kornet and Blake Griffin. One of them would move into the starting five, but regardless they aren't ideal streaming options for Sunday's slate. Fantasy managers will have to check back closer to tip-off for another update on Williams.

  • Robert Williams III Gets Another Questionable Tag On Tuesday

    Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (illness) received the questionable tag again on Tuesday due to a non-COVID illness. He's still on a minute restriction, so the team could opt to play it safe. Williams hasn't played more than 22 minutes and has generally hovered between 13 and 17 while coming off of the bench. If they keep him out of this one, look for Al Horford to get some big minutes with Luke Kornet picking up most of the backup opportunities.

  • Robert Williams III Draws Questionable Tag For Friday’s Game

    Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (illness) has been deemed questionable to suit up for Friday's contest vs. Minnesota due to an illness. Williams made his season debut last week and has since seen capped minutes off the bench for Boston, but his possible absence is not related to the knee ailment that kept him out for nearly the first two months of the year. If Williams is held out, Luke Kornet would presumably slide back into a double-digit minutes load, although he will likely remain on the periphery of DFS relevance. Even in limited minutes, Williams has managed solid production from a season-long perspective, collecting at least one block in each outing.

  • Robert Williams III Plans To Return Friday Against Orlando

    Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee) has been out the entire season so far as rehabs the knee surgery he received in the offseason. The team officially upgraded him to questionable on Friday and he looks ready to make his season debut. Last season, over 61 games, the 25-year-old averaged 10.0 points, 9.6 rebounds, 2.0 assists, and 2.0 blocks per game while shooting 73.6% from the floor. Sam Hauser and Grant Williams will likely take hits to their fantasy value once Williams ramps up his minutes.

  • Robert Williams III Could Be Back In 10-12 Days

    Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee) reportedly could be back a little bit before Christmas, which was what he originally hoped for. Adrian Wojnarowski said on NBA Today that the timeline is potentially 10 to 12 days, but he could also "wake up one day and decide he's ready to return." Fantasy managers that have been hanging on to Williams until he returns should be very excited with this news. Al Horford has now entered the health and safety protocols, so the team would welcome him back, too, so that they don't have to rely on Blake Griffin and Luke Kornet.

  • Robert Williams III Will Miss First Half Of Season

    Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III underwent a knee procedure back in September that was only supposed to keep him out for about four to six weeks. After receiving a platelet-rich plasma injection on Monday, their hope is that he returns sometime in December or January, but it could take even longer. This is a big blow to the Celtics, as he was the anchor of their defense. In fantasy formats with more than one Injured Reserve spot, he's worth keeping. With that being said, it sounds like this injury is cause for larger concern and should be monitored throughout the first couple of months this season.

  • Robert Williams III To Undergo Knee Procedure, Miss 4-6 Weeks

    Boston Celtics center Robert Williams III (knee) is expected to be sidelined for the next 4-6 weeks after undergoing an arthroscopic procedure on his left knee, per Adrian Wojnarowski of ESPN. Williams had meniscus surgery in March, which allowed him to return in time for the playoffs, although he saw a somewhat limited workload. While the latest procedure is expected to delay his return to action, Boston is hopeful it will have him available during the early portion of the regular season. Without their defensive stalwart in the mix, the Celtics are likely to utilize Al Horford at the five with an increased frequency, which could open the door for Grant Williams to play an elevated role once the season gets underway. Boston opens the regular season Oct. 18 vs. Philadelphia.
