While the plan for now is to play it safe with Boston Celtics reserve big man Robert Williams III, the plan is to ramp up his playing time slowly so he can play a big role later in the season. It’s a good thing that’s the plan because his play of late would make it hard for head coach Brad Stevens to do anything else.
We saw why in full effect against the lowly Houston Rockets Sunday night, as Timelord helped extend their NBA-high losing streak to 16 games, a nearly historic length. The former Texas A&M standout scored 16 points, 13 rebounds, an assist, a steal and 3 blocks to brutalize the Rockets at home.
It was one of his best performances of his career to date.

If it doesn’t put a smile on your face, you might be in the wrong place.
