Celtics are ‘rallying together’ for Grant Williams as his minutes continue to slip

Grant Williams flexed his confidence when he told Donovan Mitchell that he was going to make both free throws with the game on the line Monday night.

His embarrassment was on clear display after both shots clanked off the rim. It was prime material for jokes on social media and beyond.

On Wednesday, Williams addressed the moment, acknowledging that he can see the humor in it as he attempts to shake off the disappointment.

“I felt like I was super locked-in and focused, even the confidence of saying you’ll make them both,” Williams said, according to The Boston Globe.
