      The Boston Celtics will be fully healthy as they attempt to sweep the Brooklyn Nets on Monday night.

      The Celtics released a blank injury report on Sunday, meaning the team will be at full strength as they head into a potential series-clinching road game.

      The main storyline from the report is that Robert Williams no longer is listed as injured after his appearance in Game 3's 109-103 win. The center played 16 minutes with two points, two rebounds and an assist.

      The defensive star suffered a torn meniscus in his left knee on March 27. After selecting the faster timetable of his two presumed rehab options, Williams was back on the court in less than a month.

      It can be presumed that Williams will be able to return to full usage if needed for the rest of the playoffs. He averaged a career-high 29.6 minutes per game in 2021-22, and will likely trend towards that usage in Game 4.

      Boston will look to eliminate Brooklyn from the playoffs as they hold a 3-0 advantage heading into Monday night's showdown at Barclays Center at 7 p.m. ET.
