It's the holiday season, so you know what that means. Holiday-themed questions for the Boston Celtics players!

During Friday night's game against the Detroit Pistons, the Celtics aired a Jumbotron segment that asked some of their players about their favorite holiday movies. The answers were pretty standard.

Enes Kanter and Gordon Hayward answered with "Elf". Romeo Langford picked "The Grinch". Kemba Walker and Tacko Fall picked "Home Alone".

But Robert Williams? He went in a... different direction with his answer, as captured by our own A. Sherrod Blakely.

In fairness to Williams, the question was what his favorite holiday movie was. It was never specified that it had to be a Christmas movie. But nonetheless, his comical choice elicited a laugh from the TD Garden crowd.

Williams is averaging 3.9 points, 4.6 rebounds, 1.1 blocks, and 1.1 assists in 19 games this season. However, the second-year big-man is out for the next three weeks as he deals with "bone edema" in his hip.
