Vucevic has posted back-to-back double-doubles and is averaging 19.5 points and 11.5 rebounds in those two games. He has come off the bench in all nine games since joining Boston and is averaging only 23.9 minutes per game with the Celtics. However, Vucevic is still averaging 12.0 points and 8.6 rebounds with four double-doubles. His usage and minutes have come down, but he's still a double-double threat on a nightly basis.

Nikola Vucevic scored 28 points (9-13 FG, 3-3 3PT, 7-7 FT) to go along with 11 rebounds, four assists and one block in the Celtics 148-111 win over the Nets.

Vucevic made the most of his 25 minutes played off the bench. He was able to get back on track after struggling to score in his previous few games. He'll continue to make the most of his minutes with the second unit.

Nikola Vucevic finished with 19 points (7-12 FG, 4-5 3PT, 1-2 FT), 11 rebounds, three assists, and two blocks in Wednesday's win over the Bulls.

Fantasy Impact

It seems odd for Vucevic to be playing against the Bulls, but on Wednesday, he looked like the player who held down the middle for Chicago the last several years. The Celtics have used the veteran off the bench in his first three games with the team, but Vucevic has recorded two double-doubles while averaging 13.7 points, 9.7 boards, and 2.3 assists.

Nikola Vucevic posted a double-double off of the bench for the Celtics Friday night, grabbing 12 rebounds and chipping in 11 points (4-8 FG, 0-1 3PT, 3-4 FT) while also dishing out four assists and recording two steals in a 98-96 win over the Heat.

Fantasy Impact

Vucevic continues a solid stretch on both ends of the floor, finishing with two or more rebounds and 11 or more points in each of his last five games. The veteran center will look to provide a versatile Boston lineup with more stability in the frontcourt, averaging 16.8 points and 9.0 rebounds per game while posting a usage rate of 21.4% so far this season.

Nikola Vucevic will come off the bench in his Boston Celtics debut on Friday against the Miami Heat.

Fantasy Impact

Vucevic spoke to reporters Friday and said he will come off the bench. He said he is “very excited” to join the Boston Celtics and understands his role will be different than it has been throughout his career. Vucevic appeared in 48 games with the Chicago Bulls this season, averaging 16.9 points, nine rebounds and 3.8 assists. With his arrival in Boston, Neemias Queta, Luka Garza and Jordan Walsh could see their minutes dip.
