Neemias Queta delivered a standout performance for the Celtics in their recent blowout win against the Clippers, contributing significantly with 14 points, 12 rebounds, and 3 assists in 23 minutes of play. His efforts were particularly notable as he achieved his second double-double of the week and a career-high in rebounds, marking his best game with the Celtics. Queta's productivity was evident from early in the game, with an initial impact of 4 points and 8 rebounds in just 11 minutes. Despite needing to improve his finishing at the rim, his free throw shooting and activity on both ends of the court were praised. The performance has been seen as potentially pivotal for the Celtics, as Queta's emergence could save the team from having to trade player or draft capital for another backup big, especially in the absence of the injured Kornet.
One key underrated thing about tonight's Hawks-Grizzlies game is WAIT WAIT NEEMIAS QUETA HAD 14 POINTS 12 REBOUNDS AND THREE ASSISTS EARLIER TODAY!!!!
He certainly wasn't THE story of today's blowout win over the Clippers, but Queta goes for 14 points, 12 rebounds and 3 assists in 23 minutes -- his second double-double of the trip. He may save the Celtics from spending player and/or draft pick capital on another backup big. https://t.co/BfPgim5lWc
Neemias Queta has his second double-double of the week and a career-high 12 boards. He's come through huge with this opportunity lately as Kornet is out.
Queta finishes with 14 pts, 12 rebs and 3 ast in 23 minutes. His best game with the #Celtics #Clippers
These Queta minutes once again have been quite productive. 4 pts and 8 rebs in 11 minutes. He needs to finish better at the rim, but he can hit FTs and is active on both sides. #Celtics #Clippers
