Should Grant Williams start for the Celtics after his series-clinching performance vs. the Milwaukee Bucks?

With the fate of the Boston Celtics’ season hanging in the balance, Grant Williams was absolutely phenomenal in Game 7 for Boston. The Milwaukee Bucks were daring Williams to keep hoisting 3s, even with his first few attempts failing to go in. But with the encouragement of his teammates and coach, Williams heated up and led all scorers with 27 points on 10-of-22 shooting, along with 7-of-18 3-pointers.

Williams set a playoff career-high in points and made treys, and tied a record for most 3s attempted in a Game 7 (also held by Golden State Warriors legendary point guard Steph Curry). Should the Tennessee product start for Boston moving forward?

Join the hosts of the CLNS Media “Garden Report” podcast as they take one more look back at Grant Williams and his lights-out performance to help topple the Bucks in Game 7 and whether it was enough to catapult the forward to starter status now or in the future.

If nothing else, it set up the Celtics with the next stop in their revenge tour playoffs with a date against 2020 Orlando bubble foes, the Miami Heat.
