Robert Williams III has had injury issues throughout his career, which the Boston Celtics may address by bringing in another big man with their final roster spot.

"LaMarcus Aldridge is out there, a player I was told they showed a little interest in this summer," said Adrian Wojnarowski.

The minor surgery Williams will undergo this week is expected to be more of a training camp and preseason recovery than a regular season one, which decreases the urgency for Boston to make a move.

Aldridge spent last season with the Brooklyn Nets.
