Celtics' Neemias Queta: Efficient shooting in win
Queta ended Thursday's 118-115 win over the Timberwolves with eight points (4-5 FG), five rebounds and one steal in 22 minutes.
Queta has seen a big bump in minutes over the last two games and has been efficient when on the floor for the Celtics. The 25-year-old has scored eight points in back-to-back games while missing only two shots combined (8-for-10) against the Raptors and Timberwolves.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Efficient night in win
Queta recorded four points (2-3 FG), two rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 18 minutes during Thursday's 123-99 victory over Detroit.
The big man saw significant playing time off the bench while serving as the primary backup to Kristaps Porzingis on Thursday. Queta has appeared in three consecutive outings following a DNP-CD on Dec. 4, during which he has averaged 3.7 points, 3.7 rebounds and 1.0 blocks across 15.7 minutes per contest.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Turns heads with strong play
Queta posted 12 points (5-6 FG, 2-2 FT), nine rebounds, three assists, four blocks and two steals over 25 minutes during Monday's 126-94 victory over the Clippers.
The Celtics were missing Al Horford (illness) and Luke Kornet (hamstring) for the second leg of this back-to-back set, while Kristaps Porzingis returned to action with 23 minutes. Queta absorbed the available center minutes and made the most of them, recording a season-high four blocks in the process. He's been excellent in limited minutes for the Celtics this season, but it's hard to see a path to consistent value now that the team is getting healthier up front.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Back to bench
Queta won't start Sunday's game against the Timberwolves, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.
As expected, Queta will shift back to the bench due to Al Horford returning to the starting lineup after a one-game absence due to an illness. However, with Luke Kornet (hamstring) unavailable, Queta should still see a sizable reserve role behind Horford on Sunday.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Quiet in spot start
Queta ended Friday's 108-96 victory over Washington with seven points (1-3 FG, 5-6 FT), two rebounds and one block over 18 minutes.
Queta moved into the starting lineup after Al Horford was ruled out due to illness. Having assumed the primary backup role behind Horford, Queta was the obvious choice to run with the starters. However, his production was far from inspiring, and he was replaced by Luke Kornet to begin the second half. Although he has carved out a consistent role, Queta's upside remains relatively limited.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Coming off bench
Queta will play a reserve role in Friday's game against the Nets, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.
With veteran Al Horford getting the starting nod at center, Queta will come off the bench. It will snap a string of two straight starts for the big man. He has averaged 5.0 points, 4.2 rebounds and 0.5 blocks across 12.2 minutes in six games as a reserve.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Nears double-double in spot start
Queta totaled 10 points (4-7 FG, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds, one block and one steal over 23 minutes during Monday's 123-93 win over the Hawks.
Queta made the first start of his NBA career and looked good operating in the frontcourt alongside Al Horford. However, Queta's presence in the starting lineup is expected to be short, especially if Jaylen Brown (hip) is cleared to return soon.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: In starting five Monday
Queta will enter the starting lineup in Monday's game against the Hawks, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.
The 25-year-old center will start alongside Al Horford in the frontocourt with Jaylen Brown (hip) out. Queta has played double-digit minutes in each of the Celtics' last three games, during which he averaged 6.0 points, 6.0 rebounds and 1.0 assists while shooting 75.0 percent from the field across 17.7 minutes per game.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Pops for 12 points in win
Queta recorded 12 points (6-6 FG), six rebounds and one assist over 24 minutes during Friday's 124-109 victory over the Hornets.
Queta logged a season-high 24 minutes, making the most of the fact that Al Horford was resting. While Luke Kornet got the start, it was Queta who stepped up, something to keep in mind the next time Horford is given the night off. With that said, the allocation of minutes could vary depending on the matchup, so there is no guarantee Queta plays 24 minutes next time.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Reverts to bench
Queta will move to the second unit for Tuesday's preseason game against the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
This is an expected move with Boston getting most of its key players back from a planned rest day. With Kristaps Porzingis sidelined to start the season, Queta is competing for rotational minutes with Xavier Tillman.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Double-doubles in win Sunday
Queta posted 12 points (3-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 6-6 FT), 15 rebounds, five assists and a block across 21 minutes in Sunday's 115-111 preseason win over the Raptors.
The Celtics rested the entire group that started Saturday's huge win over the 76ers, and Queta certainly took advantage of his opportunity. However, as good as he looked in this win, Queta isn't likely to have a prominent role in the rotation, and his best bet at seeing the court regularly would be to beat Xavier Tillman for the backup role behind Al Horford and Luke Kornet while Kristaps Porzingis (foot) remains sidelined.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Starting Sunday
Queta will start Sunday's preseason game against the Raptors, Blake Murphy of Sportsnet.ca reports.
Queta will enter the starting lineup due to the Celtics benching their starters for the second half of a back-to-back set. The 25-year-old appeared in 28 games during the 2023-24 season and posted averages of 5.5 points and 4.4 rebounds in 11.9 minutes per game.
