Celtics' Neemias Queta: Removed from injury report
Queta (thumb) is off the injury report for Wednesday's game against Miami, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.
After sitting out Monday's loss to the Hawks with a thumb injury, Queta is ready to get back into the lineup Wednesday and will likely push Luka Garza to the bench. Queta has averaged 11.0 points, 8.1 rebounds and 2.8 assists in 27.9 minutes per contest across his last eight games, shooting 69.1 percent from the field during this stretch.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Unavailable versus Atlanta
Queta (thumb) won't play in Monday's game against the Hawks, according to Keith Smith of Spotrac.com.
Queta finished with 17 points, eight rebounds, one assist, one steal and one block in Sunday's 114-99 win over Charlotte. However, he won't suit up for the second of a back-to-back, meaning his next opportunity to play will be Wednesday in Miami. With Queta ruled out, Luka Garza is anticipated to enter the starting lineup. In four starts this season, Garza has averaged 6.8 points, 3.3 rebounds, 0.5 assists and 0.5 steals across 17.8 minutes of work.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Doubtful for Monday
Queta is doubtful for Monday's game against the Hawks with a right thumb sprain.
The injury likely isn't a major concern for Queta, who may just be in line for a maintenance day as the Celtics enter the second leg of a back-to-back set. Assuming Queta ends up sitting out Monday, Luka Garza and Amari Williams will likely absorb most of the minutes at center.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Nets 17 points with eight boards
Queta contributed 17 points (8-13 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 1-2 FT), eight rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 29 minutes during Sunday's 114-99 victory over the Hornets.
Queta attempted just his sixth three-pointer of the season in this one, but it ended like the previous five -- with a miss. While he regularly brings donuts to the three-point category, he's still been flirting with top-75 value on the season thanks to his solid output in rebounding (8.3), shot blocking (1.3) and field goal percentage (64).

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Available to play
Queta (thumb) is available for Sunday's game in Charlotte, Bobby Krivitsky of Forbes.com reports.
Queta will power through the thumb issue and should see his usual minutes as a starter Sunday. Queta is averaging 9.8 points, 8.3 rebounds and 1.3 blocks per game this season.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Trending toward playing Sunday
Queta (thumb) has been upgraded from questionable to probable for Sunday's game against Charlotte, Taylor Snow of the Celtics' official site reports.
It looks like Queta will play through a right thumb sprain for Sunday's game, though there's no guarantee that he'll be available for the second leg of the Celtics' back-to-back set against the Hawks on Monday. Queta has logged double-digit rebounds in three of his last four outings and has averaged 10.1 points, 8.1 rebounds, 3.0 assists and 0.9 blocks over 27.9 minutes per game across his last seven appearances.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Iffy to play Sunday
Queta (thumb) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the Hornets, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.
Queta has recently been playing through a right thumb sprain. The injury hasn't been severe enough for him to miss time, but if he doesn't play Sunday, then Luka Garza would be the top candidate to enter the Celtics' starting lineup. Since March 1, Queta has averaged 9.9 points, 8.9 rebounds, 1.9 assists and 1.1 blocks over 26.6 minutes per contest.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Cleared to play
Queta (thumb) will play Friday against the Hawks, Kevin Chouinard of the Hawks' official site reports.
Queta will shake off a questionable tag for this contest. He's been terrific over his last six contests, averaging 11.0 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.7 assists and 0.8 blocks in 27.9 minutes per contest.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Questionable with thumb sprain
Queta is questionable for Friday's game against Atlanta with a right thumb sprain.
Queta is at risk of missing just his fifth contest of the season Friday. If the big man cannot suit up, Luka Garza would likely start at center and make sense as a strong plug-and-play fantasy option in most leagues.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Efficient in win over OKC
Queta logged 13 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 FT), five rebounds, two assists and two blocks across 30 minutes during Wednesday's 119-109 victory over the Thunder.
Queta plays a secondary role on offense, but the big man has found ways to contribute and is putting up solid numbers across the board. He left his mark defensively Wednesday with two blocks, making it the third time he's done that in his last seven games. It was also the third time he scored in double digits during that span. He'll remain valuable as long as he continues to start and see the majority of center minutes while Nikola Vucevic (finger) is sidelined. Queta is shooting 65.9 percent from the floor in that seven-game stretch and 63.6 percent since the All-Star break.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Perfect double-double Friday
Queta produced 12 points (4-4 FG, 4-4 FT), 11 rebounds and one assist in 18 minutes during Friday's 117-112 victory over Memphis.
Aside from notching his fourth double-double since the beginning of the month, it's worth noting that Queta also achieved this feat by not missing any of his shots from the field. His offensive touches will be even more inconsistent now that Jayson Tatum is back in the lineup, but the big man is making the most of his opportunities. Queta is averaging 10.7 points and 9.0 rebounds per game in March while shooting 62.7 percent from the floor.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Double-double with two blocks
Queta chipped in 24 points (11-13 FG, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists, two blocks and one steal in 31 minutes during Saturday's 111-100 victory over Washington.
Queta did most of his damage in the first half, scoring 22 of his 24 points in the opening two quarters. Although he slowed in the second half, it was still a productive night, with Queta recording his first double-double in more than a week. Despite his limited offensive showing this season, Queta has been a solid standard-league asset, putting up top-85 value through 63 games.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Quiet in defeat
Queta racked up five points (1-3 FG, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, one assist and one block across 19 minutes during Tuesday's 125-116 loss to the Spurs.
Luka Garza played five more minutes than Queta, who battled foul trouble and struggled against Victor Wembanyama. Queta has averaged 10.5 points, 8.6 rebounds and 1.3 blocks in 23.8 minutes per tilt in his last 10 games, shooting 62.1 percent from the field.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: In line for expanded role
Queta registered 16 points (6-8 FG, 4-7 FT), 15 rebounds, one block and one steal over 26 minutes during Friday's 120-100 victory over the Mavericks.
Queta dominated the glass Friday, pulling down a game-high 15 rebounds to secure his fourth double-double in his last seven outings. His outlook for the remainder of the regular season has shifted significantly following the news that Nikola Vucevic (finger) is expected to miss at least 3-to-4 weeks. While Queta and Vucevic had been splitting time at center, Queta is now locked in as the primary interior option for Boston. With Vucevic sidelined, Queta's 25-plus-minute workload appears secure.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Cleared from injury report
Queta (rest) is off the injury report for Wednesday's game against the Hornets, per Keith Smith of Spotrac.com.
The Celtics gave Queta the night off during Monday's win over the Bucks, but the 26-year-old big man is ready to return to the floor Wednesday and figures to send Nikola Vucevic back to the bench. Over his past five appearances, Queta is averaging 13.8 points, 9.6 rebounds, 2.0 blocks and 1.6 assists in 24.6 minutes per contest while shooting a robust 69.2 percent from the field.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Receiving rest Monday
The Celtics have ruled out Queta for Monday's game against the Bucks for rest purposes.
Queta will get a well-deserved breather one day after posting a career-high 27 points and grabbing 17 boards in a 114-98 win over the 76ers. In Queta's absence, Nikola Vucevic will likely draw his first start since joining the Celtics ahead of the trade deadline, while Luka Garza could re-enter the rotation as Vucevic's primary backup.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Career performance in win
Queta went for 27 points (10-14 FG, 7-10 FT), 17 rebounds, three blocks, two assists and a steal in 27 minutes during Sunday's 114-98 win over the 76ers.
Queta was dominant down low Sunday, racking up a career-high 27 points on incredible efficiency and adding a game-high 17 rebounds. Queta also held it down defensively, posting a game-high three blocks and contributing a steal. The big man has logged three double-doubles over his last five games, averaging 13.8 points, 9.6 rebounds, 2.0 blocks and 1.6 assists in 24.6 minutes per contest over that stretch.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Another double-double Tuesday
Queta supplied 14 points (5-10 FG, 4-4 FT), 13 rebounds, three assists and two blocks across 27 minutes during Tuesday's 97-81 win over the Suns.
Queta recorded his second straight double-double, once again outperforming Nikola Vucevic. While the addition of Vucevic has had an impact on Queta's playing time, the fact that he is a superior defender appears to have him ahead of Vucevic in the rotation. Assuming he can see close to 22 minutes per night moving forward, Queta should still be able to flirt with top 100 value.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Double-doubles vs. LAL
Queta posted 10 points (4-5 FG, 2-2 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist and three blocks over 26 minutes during the Celtics' 111-89 win over the Lakers on Sunday.
Queta led the the Celtics in both blocks and rebounds Sunday (including four offensive boards) en route to his 10th double-double of the season (and third over his last nine outings). Queta continues to serve in a prominent role as the Celtics' starting center despite the team's acquisition of Nikola Vucevic at the trade deadline. Queta has averaged 8.1 points, 9.4 rebounds, 1.8 assists and 1.4 blocks over 25.1 minutes per game since Feb. 1.

Celtics' Neemias Queta: Returns Wednesday
Queta (ankle) returned to Wednesday's game against the Bulls with 8:47 remaining in the second quarter, per the broadcast.
Queta landed awkwardly on his left ankle in the opening quarter and exited to the locker room. However, the big man has been cleared to return and appears to be good to go for the remainder of the contest.
