Is Neemias Queta the Boston Celtics center of the future? The Portuguese big man has been given a real opportunity with the Celtics early in their 2024-25 regular season campaign, and he has made more than a little out of it. Since he has been playing bigger minutes for Boston this season, Queta has shown he is not just an offensive rebounding specialist.

With multiple NBA starts now under his belt with the league’s reigning champion — including an outstanding performance guarding Stephen Curry and the Golden State Warriors — and defense showcasing vastly improved mobility, it is looking likely that Queta has earned a real spot in Boston’s rotations.

The hosts of the CLNS Media “Garden Report” podcast, Bobby Manning, Noa Dalzell, Jimmy Toscano, A. Sherrod Blakely and John Zannis took some time on a recent episode of their show to talk it over. Check it out below!
