The NBA Summer League starts for the Celtics on July 6th against the Philadelphia 76'ers. The potential starting front court is intriguing.
Newly-drafted Robert Williams III should be there , hopefully displaying why the Celtics rated him highly - and hopefully dispelling any negative thoughts that allowed him to slip from a probable lottery pick to #27. He has the size, length, physique and talent to be a star in the League, but he needs to, according to NBATV's David Aldridge, develop a "consistent motor".
Robert is an elite rebounder and rim-protector but shoots poorly from the free throw line and his shot past the 3-point arc is non-existent.
