Boston Celtics second-year reserve center Robert Williams III had the best night of his young career with the team against the Brooklyn Nets Wednesday, making the most of an extended opportunity made possible by the team’s high-scoring 149-115 win.
Time Lord put up 18 points, 5 rebounds, 3 blocks and a steal in just 19 minutes of playing time, shooting a perfect 7-of-7 from the floor as the Texas A&M product showed flashes of the sort of player he could become — and that Boston hoped they had drafted.
Sidelined much of the 2019-20 season before the hiatus with a severe hip injury, the break gave Williams a chance to heal.
The time off for Time Lord seems like just what Dr. Who ordered (we’ll show ourselves out).
So, if you’re a fan of the Louisianian big man or just want to see what the hubbub is, watch the video embedded above.
It’s bigger on the inside, after all.
