NBC SportsNeemias Queta (illness) is available for Friday's game against the Kings.

After sitting out Wednesday's loss to the Hawks, Queta is good to go for Friday night. Amari Williams started against Atlanta but only played 15 minutes, with Luka Garza logging 24 minutes off the bench. Williams has been sent to the G League, so he will be inactive, which bodes well for Queta's playing time.

NBC SportsNeemias Queta (illness) is out for Wednesday's matchup with the Hawks, and Luka Garza (illness) is available.

Queta appeared in Monday's win over Portland, but Amari Williams started. With Queta out of action and Luka Garza back after sitting out on Monday, Williams could see his role reduced in favor of Garza. The pair will pick up the slack for Queta, though neither Garza nor Williams are worth streaming outside of deep fantasy leagues.

NBC SportsNeemias Queta (illness) is doubtful to play against the Hawks on Wednesday.

Queta has been on the injury report with an illness ahead of Boston's last few games, but he hasn't missed any time. However, he is expected to miss this game. Amari Williams started in his place on Saturday even though Queta played, so Williams will have a good chance to return to the starting unit against Atlanta.
