Why Did Joe Mazzulla BENCH Grant Williams in Celtics vs Cavs?
- last year
BOSTON -- Grant Williams was a healthy scratch in the Celtics 118-113 victory over the Cavs on Wednesday night.
When asked why Grant Williams was a DNP, Celtics Coach Joe Mazzulla said:
"Just match up on the offensive end as far as, you know, space on the floor and having a rim protection. So when Mike [Muscala] was in, we were able to play a different defensive lineup, we didn't want to switch these guys as much in that second unit.
CLNS Media's Bobby Manning and Josue Pavon discuss if Grant is becoming the odd man out in the Celtics current rotation.
