ORLANDO — As Grant Williams was leaving Boston Celtics All-Stars Jayson Tatum and Jaylen Brown over the summer to join forces with Mavericks All-Stars Luka Doncic and Kyrie Irving, coach Jason Kidd wanted to assure Williams he was in good hands.

“I think just talking to him about Luka is a different guy, Kai is a different guy, and that’s nothing against Tatum and Brown,” Kidd said. “But Luka is going to produce a lot of wide open shots for you and (Williams is) getting a lot of wide open shots, and he’s shooting the ball at a high clip.
