Huge blow for the Boston Celtics tonight as they get ready for a crucial Game 4 against the Milwaukee Bucks – Robert Williams has been ruled out with left knee soreness.
Rob Williams wasn’t listed on yesterday’s injury report (which only featured Sam Hauser and his shoulder injury), so this is a newer development. Williams previously missed four weeks with a meniscus tear in this same left knee, so this is a little bit concerning both for tonight’s game as well as the series (and playoffs moving forward).
Williams has uncharacteristically been unable to contain Giannis Antetokounmpo even slightly in ISO situations, so perhaps the left knee soreness hampered his movement a little bit.
