Robert Williams – AVAILABLE
Boston has been without Williams since March 27 as the big man missed the team’s past nine games, including Games 1 and 2 of the big Eastern Conference showdown with Brooklyn. As the series shifts to New York, so comes the return of the double-double machine from a knee injury.
The former Texas A&M standout averaged a near double-double with 10.0 points and 9.6 rebounds per game this season. In addition to leading the squad on the glass, Williams also added a team-best 2.2 blocks per game to go along with 0.9 steals a night.
On Saturday night, Boston can grab a commanding 3-0 series lead with a third straight victory over the Nets. They came into this road contest as +3.5 point underdogs, but for a live line on the game, head over to FanDuel Sportsbook.
