Joe Mazzulla updates on Neemias Queta’s ankle injury

Neemias Queta’s ankle injury has left Celtics fans wondering about his status for the upcoming games, but it seems like even Coach Mazzulla isn’t quite sure. Queta sprained his left ankle during the game against the Orlando Magic, and with the Celtics not playing until Wednesday, updates on his condition have been scarce.

When asked about Queta’s status after practice, Mazzulla kept it cryptic, saying, “I haven’t seen him or spoken to him.” This led to some speculation about what might be going on behind the scenes. However, Queta was later seen at the practice facility, so it’s possible that he was receiving treatment for his injury.

It turns out, Queta will miss the game against the Detroit Pistons, which is a blow to the team considering his impact on the court this season. With Queta out, Mazzulla may turn to backup players like Luka Garza, Xavier Tillman, or Chris Boucher to fill the void against the Pistons.

Although there are still some uncertainties surrounding Queta’s injury, Celtics fans can tune in to the game against the Pistons on Wednesday at 5 p.m. ET to see how the team adjusts without their starting center. Stay tuned for more updates on Queta’s recovery and future game availability.
