Celtics’ Trevion Williams flashes passing ability, positivity at NBA Summer League

Las Vegas-The first line of the Trabion Williams Scout Report has passed.There is Long youtube video Dedicated to the big guy throwing an array of darts that triggers “Oooh!” In college. He looks ugly, striding the cutter every time, from overhead bullets to cross-court whips to bounce passes.

The second line of the Scout Report is a pleasure.

The first two bullets may come together. Williams made his goal to make others smile, and his selfish passages are of great help in helping it on the basketball court. But it gets much deeper.

The Williams family met at a draft party last month and were well aware that there was no guarantee that Trebion would be chosen. But when he wasn’t there, he wasn’t in tears. Instead, when the Boston Celtics called him to invite him to the Summer League, the family cheered and celebrated as if his name had been announced during the draft broadcast.

“We still had a great time, we still cheered, we still celebrated, and everything,” Williams said. “We ate some delicious food. You just look positive.”

21-year-old Williams has always found a silver lining. Williams moved to Detroit in search of his home and school, where he felt safer, after losing his uncle in gun violence in his hometown of Chicago in 2015. He thrived there and landed on the National Division I’s college radar, even though he was playing at an art school instead of some preparatory basketball warehouses.

He needed to be slim with Purdue, but it had an immediate impact. Despite being the first team All Big Ten as a junior, Williams served as a backup during the senior season with boilermakers. All he did was win the Big Ten Sixman of the Year while winning the nod of the second team, All Big Ten.

He admitted that Williams’s road is far from traditional.

So when Williams started his professional journey, nothing was easy for Williams. Those passing skills are a great help in stating his case that he belongs to the NBA, but it’s a brilliant joy.

“That’s what I understood in college,” Williams said. “I came in as a freshman. I was a quiet guy. People always thought I had an attitude. I really didn’t say anything. I’m a year old As I took it, I had to get out of my comfort zone and just smile. Face. You’ll be amazed at what it does to other people around you. So I want to be as positive as possible. I think.”

It’s like dancing in the middle of summer league practice. After hitting a few long-range jumpers with other bigs in post-practice shooting training, Williams voluntarily began digging a ditch on the practice court in the Cocks Pavilion on UNLV’s campus, greatly pleasing the people around him. did.

“We need to make our work fun,” Williams said.

Williams knows that not all his scouting reports are shining. He has a way to grow into a rotation level player in the defensive end, he plays under the rim and complicates the problem as his opponent grows in size and strength at the next level. But he rebounds like 7 feet, treats the ball like a point guard, and sets up a bone-crushing screen.

And everyone notices his death.

I was really impressed not only with his willingness to pass, but also with his vision and ability to see the floor.

“I think he’s been making his teammates better by passing them from the first day since he came here,” said teammate Samhauser. “I know he was just looking in the other direction and threw it into the shooting pockets of three people a couple of times to another guy he didn’t see.”

Celtics coach Ben Sullivan added: Passed, but his vision and ability to see the floor. “

Williams acknowledges his father’s credit for keeping him in guard-style training, even as he grows up. “My dad always urged me not to be one-dimensional,” Williams said. So, even when he sprouted, he was the main ball handler for his high school squad.

Williams knows the Celtics like the Bigs who can move the ball.At the top of the Big Man depth chart is Al Horford, which can facilitate attacks from the high post. Robert Williams IIIKnown for transforming into Dime Road.

“100 percent, I definitely think I’ll fit,” Williams said. “I love Al’s game. I think it’s very similar when it comes to player style. Rob is an athletic big and gets a block shot with Rob, but Al can easily start an attack. He can do a lot of things, though at the top of the key when he has the ball, and that’s where I see myself, promote at the top of the key. “

He occasionally shows off Jokić-like darts in summer league games this week. But Williams’ goal is simply to prove that he deserves to stick to the Celtics. The Celtics have an open roster spot and one bidirectional slot to fill this summer.

“I’m here for a reason,” Williams said. “I don’t think this lifestyle is for everyone. But I did the job for myself. Being affiliated and being a team first person. Just show people. It’s not necessarily about you. I think it’s a real flex. It’s a way you can influence the people around you …

“So, on and off the court, when playing, on the bench, just being a cheerleader all through, just proving that I’m a good teammate.”
