Lauded for his passing, Sin City Celtics big man Trevion Williams getting increasing buzz ahead of Las Vegas Summer League

The undrafted big man could play his way onto Boston’s roster if his play translates well in Las Vegas.

There is growing buzz that undrafted big man Trevion Williams could make the Boston Celtics‘ roster for the coming 2022-23 NBA season with the team needing a sturdy presence in the paint to help eat minutes for veterans Al Horford and Robert Williams III in the regular season.

The Purdue product has been turning heads with his ability to move the rock, with Celtics assistant and Las Vegas Summer League head coach Ben Sullivan recently relating that “the first thing that stood out is his passing.” Describing the Purdue product as “a willing passer” with the vision to “see the whole floor with his size and touch and feel,” Sullivan was impressed with Williams.

That sentiment was echoed by Sin City teammate Sam Hauser, who said that since he arrived in Boston, he’s “made his teammates better” with his passing.

“There were a couple of times he was looking the other way and threw it to a different guy that he wasn’t looking at, right in the shooting pocket for the 3,” Hauser added. “He’s going to have a real impact in these games coming up.”
