Celtics walking cautious path with rookie Rob Williams - heading to G-League

No major surprise here, but Celtics Rookie Robert Williams will be spending a lot of time with the team's G-League affiliate, the Maine Red Claws. I view this as an absolute plus for all parties concerned.

Rob is still dealing with knee tendinitis, and going to the G-League means he can display his talents and not be glued to the bench, all while monitoring the reactions of his knees to his work on the court. The Celtics are loaded in their first two units and have no need to press Williams into service right away.
