The team has announced that they have signed Neemias Queta for the rest of the season, making him eligible for postseason play. MassLive’s Brian Robb is also reporting that it is a multi-year deal.
After Queta was released by Sacramento after an MVP season with their Stockton affiliate, President of Basketball Operations Brad Stevens scooped him up to a two-way contact early last fall. He played meaningful minutes early in the regular season that included a strong stretch on a December west coast trip while the team’s front court weathered injuries. In twenty-six games, the Portuguese native has averaged 4.6 points, 4.1 rebounds, and 0.6 blocks in 11.4 minutes per game.
It is unclear whether Queta has played his final game for Boston’s G-League affiliate. Al Horford and Kristaps Porzingis are both listed as questionable tonight in Milwaukee. It could be a good opportunity for Queta to get some valuable run with the big club, but the organization might also give him a chance to finish off what he started up north.
