Eligibility
Availability
Neemias Queta scored six points (3-8 FG) with 20 rebounds in the Celtics’ 114-110 loss to the Nuggets on Wednesday.
Fantasy Impact
Queta now has back to back games with 13 or more rebounds, and has had or come close to a double-double in his last three games. He’s an interesting add off waivers with his rebounding prowess, just don’t expect much scoring.
Neemias Queta filled the stat sheet for the Celtics Friday night, dishing out two assists, recording two steals, grabbing six rebounds, and chipping in 10 points (5-8 FG) in a 126-105 win over the Lakers.
Fantasy Impact
Queta continues a modest stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with two or more rebounds and six or more points in each of his last five games. The 26-year-old has offered head coach Joe Mazzulla another athletic option as part of a versatile Boston lineup on a nightly basis, averaging 10.1 points and 8.0 rebounds per game to go along with a 14.8% usage rate so far this season.
Neemias Queta has been given the green light to suit up for Tuesday's clash with the Knicks, according to Steve Popper of Newsday. The center had been dealing with an ankle issue that cost him two of the team's previous three contests, though the most recent absence was likely a precautionary measure on the tail end of a back-to-back set.
Fantasy Impact
Queta's return to the active lineup effectively pushes Xavier Tillman back to a reserve role. Tillman had drawn a spot start in the interim but will now cede those minutes back to the healthy big man.
Neemias Queta is listed as probable for Tuesday's game against the Knicks.
Fantasy Impact
Queta is likely to return from a one-game absence. Xavier Tillman should return to his reserve role as a result.
Neemias Queta (ankle) has been ruled out for Sunday’s contest between the Boston Celtics and Cleveland Cavaliers.
Fantasy Impact
Queta will sit out the second contest of a back-to-back due to injury management, with Luka Garza likely to see increased minutes in his place against the Cavaliers Sunday night.
