Robert Williams is basically the perfect modern-day NBA center.
He blocks shots with conviction, runs the floor extremely well, is lethal as a lob threat in the pick-and-roll and adds way more than he subtracts. The Celtics have never really had a player quite like him, and they’re wise to say that he’s off limits as a potential trade piece.
As long as he stays healthy, he should be a catalyst on one of the best teams in the NBA for quite some time. He’s one of the most universally liked and respected players on the roster, but even exceptional talents can still improve their craft.
