What Neemias Queta has to say about his emerging 3-pointer with the Boston Celtics
Boston Celtics center Neemias Queta surprised the NBA during the 2025-27 season by finishing as a finalist for the Most Improved Player award. Speculation arose about whether he might have missed his window to win that award, but Queta added a new dimension to his game in the offseason - a 3-point shot. After successfully shooting a three-pointer in a recent game against the Toronto Raptors, Queta revealed to CLNS Media that he sees the potential for the new skill to become a regular part of his repertoire with the Celtics.
Queta explained that he believes the more versatile and complete a player can be, the more they can contribute to the team. He emphasized that his goal is to become more consistent in various aspects of the game, including shooting, ball handling, driving to the rim, and making reads with the ball. Queta acknowledged that this work in progress will involve ups and downs and growing pains, but he remains optimistic about his development as a player.
