Thomas and KDB are two of the surest things in this draft and were not drafted. Danny find some cash quickly

Al
Baynes
Williams
Theis

Four legit bigs that they can throw at teams

I wouldn’t expect Baynes back at this point.

Schmitz: Along with Walker, Williams has the potential to be the steal of the draft at No. 27 -- the same draft slot of a similar lob-catching, shot-blocking center in Clint Capela. While there are clear questions about Williams' motor, the rangy big man is without a doubt a top-10 caliber talent when fully engaged.

He's much more suited for the open NBA game than the role he played as a power forward with clogged paint at Texas A&M. Boston is the exact environment that Williams needs to rev up his focus and commitment to his craft. The Celtics could also really use a big in Williams' mold, as he'll be a tremendous lob threat for Kyrie Irving and the rest of Boston's offensive weapons.

It will depend on how tight money is in the off season.

Depends on the money. They need 4 bigs and Monroe has to be gone.

Aron Baynes performed just right though!

Yeah, and he started shooting threes...::).

Williams is the most athletic big Stevens has had.

Probably, but I just don't know as to how Stevens would use him, if Williams can even get on the court, at all. Sigh.
