Neemias Queta recovers from injury to return for Portugal

Neemias Queta has recovered from a recent ankle injury sustained during a FIBA World Cup qualifier match between Portugal and Spain. After appearing to suffer the injury in the fourth quarter of the game, Queta was initially sidelined to avoid further risk. However, he was cleared to play and started in Portugal's subsequent matchup against Georgia.

For the Boston Celtics, Queta's availability is significant following his recent four-year, $56 million contract extension. Discussions regarding his role in the Celtics' rotation continue, with some suggesting he should maintain a starting role at center to facilitate his development, despite the team's acquisition of Mitchell Robinson.
