WATCH: Celtics forward Grant Williams scores 17 points vs. Toronto Raptors

After a spate of DNPs, you might be forgiven if you’d forgotten Boston Celtics second-year forward Grant Williams can have games like he did against the Toronto Raptors on Thursday night.

After the game, Williams related he’d gotten in his own head earlier in the season, and, humbled, went back to work on his fundamentals to charge back with this 17-point explosion. The Tennessee product shot 7-of-9 from the field and 3-of-4 from 3-point range while pulling down 4 rebounds off the bench to help secure the much-needed win. Now, the Celtics head into the break with the NBA’s longest winning streak thanks in part to Williams’ efforts.

Watch the video embedded below produced by Tomasz Kordelewski while we wait until March 11 to see Boston take the court again.
