""I'm always appreciative of this opportunity. It's not any franchise; it's the Boston Celtics," Queta said. "I try not to [think about that], because I got to go out there every day ... the best thing I do is play basketball at the end of the day. "It's a great privilege, but still I got to go out there and play basketball and deliver on the court.""
""I don't think there's a moment where I don't think about that ... I'm always appreciative of the opportunity. It's not any franchise. It's the Boston Celtics.""
Neemias Queta, 26, has taken on the Boston Celtics' starting center role and is averaging 10.1 points and 8.3 rebounds per game, nearly doubling his career averages of 5.7 points and 4.4 rebounds. His reliable presence around the rim is valuable after Boston lost three centers in the offseason. Queta expressed deep appreciation for the opportunity and emphasized focusing on playing and delivering on the court. Queta's free throw shooting is a clear weakness at 61.2 percent, one of the worst marks among NBA starters, and improving it would enhance his role and offensive value.
