Robert Williams III was my DPOY pick for this season. I think with him out, I’d lean Rudy Gobert for No. 4, but I don’t feel especially confident in any single player. – 2:08 PM

#Celtics say after surgery today, Robert Williams will resume basketball activities in two to three months. Don’t think he’ll play in this calendar year. – 2:05 PM

Rob Williams and Danilo Gallinari underwent knee surgery today. Williams has been ruled out 8-12 weeks because they had to remove loose bodies and address swelling, twice the initially expected timeframe. Gallinari was not given a timeframe but is likely out for the season. – 2:05 PM

Seems to me (not a doctor) that the bigger concern for the Celtics isn’t Robert Williams missing a couple of weeks of the regular season, but rather that he needed a procedure on the same knee just a few months after getting a piece of his meniscus cut out. – 3:02 PM

More on this storyline
Jay King: Despite Robert Williams’s knee procedure, I was told the Celtics are not planning to sign one of the big-name veteran centers still available. Expect them to replace the recently waived Bruno Caboclo with another young big man to compete for a spot in training camp. -via Twitter @ByJayKing / September 21, 2022
Cameron Tabatabaie: Woj suggests Dwight Howard, LaMarcus Aldridge could be names to keep an eye on for the C’s. Says Boston showed “a little interest in” LMA this summer. -via Twitter @CTabatabaie / September 20, 2022
