Robert Williams could be back on the court for the Celtics very soon. The Boston center is reportedly close to returning and could play in Game 3 on Saturday or Game 4 on April 25 against the Nets, according to The Athletic’s Shams Charania.
However, the final decision on Williams status will be made based on how he feels from day-to-day, per Charania.
The update on Williams comes more than two weeks after Celtics head coach Ime Udoka said in a news conference before the NBA Playoffs started that his big man would not return to the court to begin the postseason.
