Boston Celtics' Robert Williams III available to play in Game 7 against Milwaukee Bucks 'if needed'

BOSTON -- Robert Williams III will be available for the Boston Celtics on Sunday afternoon in Game 7 of their second-round playoff series against the Milwaukee Bucks, but he may not play his normal minutes -- if he plays at all.

Celtics coach Ime Udoka said Williams, who has missed the past three games with left knee soreness, will be used "if needed."

"He's available to play," Udoka said at his pregame news conference. "Hasn't done a whole lot of basketball activity in the last week. It's been more so managing the pain.
