Despite the fact that Robert Williams III didn’t practice Friday and has yet to practice this week, he’s still expected to see the floor in Game 1 of the Boston Celtics first-round series against the Brooklyn Nets. Per The Athletic and Stadium’s Shams Charania, Williams will see time on Saturday.
“The plan is for him to play this series,” Charania said during Stadium’s playoff preview live stream on Friday. “He’s been dealing with a hyperextension in his toe, and that’s an injury that he’s really gonna have to look at the next couple days, but the plan is for Robert Williams to play.
