Celtics fans starting to see more than just a freakish athlete
Would you believe Rob Williams is leading the Celtics in at least seven (7) statistical categories at the 3-game mark of the 2020-21 season? Yes, it's true. Williams III leads all of his teammates in the following per-100-possessions categories:
Offensive Rating (148)
Defensive Rating (107)
Blocks (4.3)
Steals (5.7)
Field Goal percentage (88.9%)
Win Shares per 48 minutes (.246)
Player Efficiency Rating (31.0)
Rob really came through in the Celtics recent loss to the Indiana Pacers. He was energetic, focused and composed on the floor. We may be starting to see his emergence as a solid piece of the rotation.
Brad Stevens is letting the kids play. With 22 minutes of floor time, this is Rob Williams best game as a Celtic.

Granted, the sample is small. Williams has only played in two of the Celtics three games thus far this season. It is still to be determined if he is merely a freakish athlete, future solid NBA player - or potential star. That outcome may just be totally in Rob's hands.
