Kristaps Porzingis

The Celtics have depth at the center position, even with Kristaps Porzingis (leg) expected to miss 5-6 months after undergoing surgery last month. Queta wasn't considered by many to be in the equation, but his play in Las Vegas may change that. After tallying 20 points and nine rebounds in Saturday's loss to the Heat, the 7-footer put up 22 and eight with three blocks against the Lakers. Queta's contract for next season is guaranteed, so he will be on the roster. As for getting the minutes needed to be relevant in fantasy leagues, Queta's best chance will be on nights when Al Horford doesn't play.

Queta is looking to earn rotation minutes after only playing 28 games for the champions last season. Saturday's performance was a step in the right direction, as he was productive across the board against the Heat. Kristaps Porzingis (leg) will miss at least 5-6 months, and Al Horford did not play both ends of any back-to-backs last season. Even with the Celtics re-signing Luke Kornet and Xavier Tillman, there may be times next season when Queta can offer streaming value.
