Did the Boston Celtics find a hidden gem in backup big man Neemias Queta? The Portuguese center has been working his way into Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla’s circle of trusted players in recent weeks, getting more playing time and impacting winning in new and noticeable ways for Boston.
A more capable perimeter defender making less mistakes on both ends of the court has made Queta into one of Boston’s first options off the bench, and even saw him get a situational start against the Atlanta Hawks, the first of his NBA career. Can we expect to see more growth and a bigger role from Neemy moving forward?
CLNS Media’s Bobby Manning recently took some time on a recent episode of the “Garden Report” podcast to talk it over. Check it out below!
