Boston Celtics center Neemias Queta may be facing an injury, as reported by a Portuguese outlet after he exited early during Portugal’s win over Spain in a 2027 FIBA World qualifier. Portugal’s coach, Mario Gomes, indicated that Queta’s removal was precautionary due to potential health risks, with Celtics staff assisting in the evaluation. Queta finished the game with 16 points and nine rebounds, but his availability for the upcoming qualifier against Georgia remains uncertain. He recently signed a four-year, $56 million extension with the Celtics and is expected to start as center for the 2026-27 season.
