Eligibility
Neemias Queta (knee) is out for Tuesday's game against the Cleveland Cavaliers.
Fantasy Impact
The big man recently suffered a knee injury that will leave him sidelined. He's considered week-to-week for the time being, so it's safe to say that he'll miss more time beyond this game. He rarely finds his way into Boston's rotation, however, so his absence won't carry and notable fantasy implications for the foreseeable future.
Neemias Queta (foot) is available to play in Wednesday's game against the Philadelphia 76ers.
Fantasy Impact
Queta hasn't played at all this year because of a foot injury that has left him sidelined, but he has finally recovered and will be available to make his season debut on Wednesday. Jaylen Brown (illness) and Kristaps Porzingis (knee) are both out, so Queta will have an opportunity to get some real playing time against Philadelphia.
Neemias Queta (foot) is questionable to play in Boston's matchup against the 76ers on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Queta has been out for an extended period of time thanks to a lingering foot injury, but he carries a questionable tag for Wednesday's game, which indicates that he's nearing a return. His role on this team is not strongly established yet, so it's hard to say whether or not he'll get a big enough workload to have some fantasy value when he's finally back.
Neemias Queta has agreed to a two-way deal with the Boston Celtics.
Fantasy Impact
Queta has spent the first couple years of his career on the Kings after they drafted him in 2021, but now he will be playing for Boston on a two-way deal. It remains to be seen if he will carve out a real role for himself on this team, and he won't have much value for fantasy purposes until we know if he's going to get work for the Celtics.
SAC Kings Neemias Queta recorded 11 points (4-7 FG, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, one assist, and one steal in 24 minutes during Monday's 109-108 loss to the Cavaliers.
Fantasy Impact
With several forwards and centers out of the lineup including Richaun Holmes, Tristan Thompson, and Damian Jones, Queta was asked to step in and perform, which he did. The rookie center impressed with 11 points and five boards across 24 minutes but is unlikely to stay with the team after the Kings get healthy. Queta will likely head back to the Drew League in the coming weeks in which he's averaged 16.0 points, 7.9 boards and 1.9 blocks over 13 games.
