The Celtics host the Orlando Magic in back to back games Friday and Sunday and will look to build on their NBA leading 22-7 record. Boston boasts a strong 11-2 record at home in TD Garden and will welcome back their 6-foot-9 centre to a lineup that was already thriving in his absence.
The 25 year old Texas A&M product averaged 10 points and just shy of 10 rebounds per game last year along with blocking an average of 2.2 shots. Williams will bring an interior defensive presence to Boston as he returns and give them some much needed size inside for this guard and wing heavy team.
