The Celtics have exercised their option on center Neemias Queta for next season and are adding a four-year, $56 million extension.
The agreement keeps Queta with Boston beyond the upcoming season, providing the team with additional continuity in the frontcourt. The deal represents a significant commitment to the center as the Celtics continue to manage their roster following another competitive campaign.
Queta, a 7-foot center, has been part of Boston’s big-man rotation and gives the Celtics size and depth in the middle. By picking up the option and adding the extension, Boston secures his place in the organization on a longer-term deal.
Boston Locks In Frontcourt Depth
The move comes as the Celtics continue building around a roster that has remained among the NBA’s strongest in recent seasons. Retaining Queta gives Boston another established interior option as the team plans for the next phase of its roster construction.
