Could Robert Williams III be the X-Factor for the Boston Celtics in 2019-20?

When looking at the current state of the Boston Celtics’ roster, one jarring issue resides in their front court. With the losses of Al Horford and Aron Baynes this offseason, the team’s big man depth took quite a hit. Though Danny Ainge managed to sign double-double machine Enes Kanter to a two-year, $10 million contract, with his lacking defensive skills, Boston seems primed to struggle against opposing centers.

That is, unless they finally unleash Robert Williams III.

As it currently stands, it appears the center is one of the team’s best options down low when it comes to the defensive side of the ball.
