On Friday afternoon, it was reported that Boston Celtics forward Grant Williams had his left hand operated on for an undisclosed injury, per ESPN’s Adrian Wojnarowski. It’s also expected that Williams will have made a full recovery by the time NBA training camp kicks off in the fall.
Known for his development into a sharpshooter and his defensive capabilities, Grant Williams will hit restricted free agency this summer, giving the Celtics the chance to match any offer that comes his way. His situation in Boston is a particularly tricky one, as Head Coach Joe Mazzulla drifted away from playing him during the year after being a key part of the team’s Finals run the year prior.
