As the Boston Celtics gear up for the upcoming 2023-24 NBA season, the spotlight is shining on an unexpected prospect for a role in the team’s big man rotation. Neemias Queta, the Portuguese big man who has captured the hearts of Celtics fans during the preseason with his surprisingly solid play, is generating quite a buzz. Is there a real possibility of Queta challenging Luke Kornet for his place in the Celtics’ rotation?
To set the stage, it’s important to note that the Celtics have consistently expressed their support for Kornet. He has been considered the primary third big man for some time now, and the team seems to have faith in his abilities. However, the preseason has brought Queta into the limelight, thanks to his standout performances.
The folks at the CLNS Media “How Bout Them Celtics!” podcast took a hard look at what he’s done and whether it could warrant such a move.
Take a look at the clip embedded above to hear their thoughts on the matter.
