Robert Williams III Out At Least Two Weeks With Left Hamstring Strain 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri Oct 4, 2024 7:56 pm

Robert Williams III experienced a grade 1 left hamstring strain during training camp this week. Williams is expected to miss two weeks, and his status will be updated as appropriate.


Williams appeared in just 35 games during the 22-23 season and six in 23-24 due to various knee and hamstring injuries. 


Williams signed a four-year, $54 million extension with the Boston Celtics during the 2021 offseason. Williams will be part of the free agent class in 2026. Williams has been an anticipated trade candidate since the Portland Trail Blazers acquired him as part of the Jrue Holiday trade last year.

No way! This is the only big contract he’s signed. They do need to investigate Boston for what they did to him, the same way they screwed IT.

Is he a veteran minimum guy in his next deal if these injuries stay consistent?
