Celtics List Robert Williams As Questionable For Game 7 Vs. Bucks
Williams has missed the last three games of the series
NESN by Jason Ounpraseuth
A trip to the Eastern Conference finals is at stake Sunday, and there is hope the Boston Celtics can have their paint protector against the Milwaukee Bucks.
The Celtics released their Saturday injury report, and Robert Williams III as questionable for Game 7 due to left knee soreness. Timelord has missed the last three games in the Eastern Conference semifinal series.
Celtics star Jayson Tatum was the hero in Game 6, but it would be in Boston’s best interest to avoid a Game 5 where they gave up 17 offensive rebounds to the Bucks. Williams can also be a defensive body to be used against Milwaukee star Giannis Antetokounmpo.
Game 7 of Celtics-Bucks will be played Sunday at 3:30 p.m. ET at TD Garden.

Just too soon to try for a comeback after the meniscus surgery.

It certainly seems that way. I had hoped the (soreness) would have subsided.
Maybe they should shoot him up before that game and tell him to put on #44. Sit him on the bench and tease the Bucks. We got a back end roster littered with DNP's so he might as well suit up this afternoon. I am sure he cannot hurt himself sitting on the pine.

Not old school NBA toughness, that's for sure.

He has a bone bruise from a collision with Giannis. I haven't seen any reports of how severe, location, etc.
This may be why he sits and not from any lingering effects from the operation. He'll play when the Celtics medical team releases him, as usual.
No need to cast aspersions unnecessarily, IMO.

The league has changed, Gyso, and the players too. In the old days players would play in key games with pretty severe physical limitations, playing not just through pain but with actual injuries. Nowadays not so much. Rob Williams situation is not unique to him. Most players in today's NBA would be doing the same thing. It's not a personal attack. Just an generalized observation for what it's worth. Maybe nothing.
