Queta has been on the injury report with an illness ahead of Boston’s last few games, but he hasn’t missed any time. However, he is expected to miss this game. Amari Williams started in his place on Saturday even though Queta played, so Williams will have a good chance to return to the starting unit against Atlanta.

With Luka Garza (ankle) unavailable, Williams remained in the Celtics’ rotation on Monday. And this matchup led to the rookie playing more than starter Neemias Queta (four points, four rebounds, five assists and one blocked shot), who logged 22 minutes to Williams’ 26. Following the game, Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla cited Williams’ abilities as a screener as one of the reasons for his increased playing time. The rookie’s recent increase in playing time won’t significantly affect redraft leagues. Still, dynasty league managers should keep an eye on him, even if Williams is on a two-way deal.

In terms of shooting the basketball, White had a relatively efficient night at the office. However, he had the worst game of his NBA career from a turnover standpoint. White was responsible for eight, two more than his previous career-high and double his season-high. To put the eight turnovers in perspective, he totaled nine in his last six games. The good news for fantasy managers is that high-turnover nights aren’t the norm for White, so there’s no need to panic.

While this current run doesn’t compare with a stretch earlier this season of nine straight games with at least 30 points, Brown has scored at least 20 in each of his last ten appearances. That said, the steals production in Monday’s victory was just as noteworthy. The four steals were one shy of his season-high and one less than his total in Boston’s previous three games. Thanks to the consistent production, Brown has offered third-round value in eight-cat formats over the past three weeks.

Pritchard had a good night at the office, but there was some concern during the fourth quarter after he appeared to jam his left pinky finger while attempting to corral a rebound. The good news is that he returned to the bench after a quick trip to the locker room and checked back in during the final minute to help put the game away. As for the production, Pritchard has now shot 12-of-25 from three over his last three appearances. With the limited defensive production, his fantasy ceiling isn’t particularly high, but the Celtics’ guard has offered a reliable floor.

After coming off the bench in Saturday’s loss to the Bulls, Queta is back in the starting lineup. With Luka Garza (ankle) unavailable, the Celtics may play their starting center more than usual. Amari Williams, who started on Saturday, could be in the rotation, but the rookie should only be rostered in dynasty leagues.

Absent from the initial injury report for Monday, Boucher is now questionable to play. He hasn’t appeared in a game since November 23, so the forward’s availability does not affect fantasy basketball or the Celtics’ rotation.

Garza’s absence on Monday will open up key frontcourt minutes off the bench. The fifth-year pro has been a key member of the Celtics’ rotation and is enjoying a career-best season. His minutes could be dispersed to Amari Williams, Neemias Queta, and Josh Minott.

Queta was initially questionable for Monday’s game due to an illness that he’s been dealing with over the last few games. With Luka Garza (ankle) out, the Celtics may turn to Amari Williams to serve as Queta’s backup, but the starter should play enough to provide solid fantasy value.

Koloko backed up Onyeka Okongwu (12/10/2 with a block in 31 minutes) at center, and he logged more minutes than Mouhamed Gueye (seven points and six rebounds in 13 minutes). Koloko is on a two-way deal, but he could see meaningful minutes until Kristaps Porziņǵis (Achilles) returns to the lineup. The former is worth a look in deep leagues only.

Johnson couldn’t get it going as a scorer, but he did everything else in the box score, and fantasy managers ended up with another strong performance. Johnson will look to get back on track from an efficiency standpoint when the Hawks face the Celtics on Wednesday.

McCollum hasn’t had trouble offering strong scoring numbers off the bench, but Monday’s final stat line represents arguably his best all-around performance in a Hawks uniform. Fantasy managers who rolled with McCollum were treated to a team-high point total, meaningful counting stats, strong defensive contributions and a flurry of triples.

Risacher is nearing a return after nearly three weeks on the shelf, but until he’s back, Corey Kispert and Vit Krejčí should see increased run. Despite the bump in playing time, neither Kispert nor Krejčí are worth a look outside of deep fantasy leagues.

Porziņǵis is participating in basketball activity, but he’s still at least a week away from returning to the court. Onyeka Okongwu has been soaking up minutes in KP’s absence, and he’s been a strong producer for fantasy managers. Mouhamed Gueye has earned some additional backup minutes, but he’s only worth a look in deep leagues.

It appeared the Celtics hoped to rest Queta for Saturday’s loss to the Bulls, but he wound up playing 24 minutes, in part because Luka Garza tweaked his left ankle during the first half. Rookie Amari Williams started for Queta, but he only played ten minutes. If Queta can’t play, Garza is more likely to benefit than Williams, regardless of who starts.

Due to a bone contusion in his left knee, Risacher has not appeared in a game since January 7. Being assigned to the Hawks’ G League affiliate is a step in the right direction, as it’s a sign that he’s able to do some on-court work. While Vit Krejčí was Risacher’s replacement in the starting lineup in the immediate aftermath of his knee injury, Corey Kispert has been the most recent replacement. Neither player should be rostered in most fantasy leagues.

Chicago’s decision to guard Brown one-on-one without help proved costly, as he torched them for 20 first-half points on an absurdly efficient 7-of-10 shooting from inside three-point range. The 29-year-old franchise cornerstone’s effort was even more impressive considering he played a whopping 46 minutes during Friday night’s double-overtime win over the Nets and has been dealing with a lingering hamstring issue. He saved his best for the final minute going coast-to-coast for a game-tying layup with 14.2 seconds left in regulation. The herculean effort wasn’t enough for Boston as Chicago knocked down 21 three-pointers to squeak out a narrow win. The Celtics have a four-game week on tap that includes matchups against the Trail Blazers, Hawks, Kings and Bucks.

Simons helped nearly spoil Derek Rose night in Chicago by doing his best impression, getting downhill and attacking the rim in addition to supplying his usual barrage of three-pointers. It was his first 20-point effort since going off for 39 points against the Heat back on January 15. The 26-year-old scoring machine contributed a strong all-around fantasy effort in this one, supplying a handful of rebounds, assists and steals. He remains a defensive liability but he’s capable of scoring in bunches when he gets hot.

While Neemias Queta (illness) is available, he’ll come off the bench on Saturday. And instead of Luka Garza, who played 20 minutes in Saturday’s win over the Nets, it will be Williams who starts. The second-round pick out of Kentucky will make his tenth appearance of the season, with this being his first start. Also, White’s return means that Baylor Scheierman comes off the bench.

Queta is good to go for Saturday’s game, which is the second in as many nights for the Celtics. He played 28 minutes in Friday’s win over the Nets, though illness was a factor. Luka Garza may pick up a few additional minutes off the bench, but he isn’t worth streaming since Queta is playing.

White did not play in Friday’s double-overtime win over the Nets, with Baylor Scheierman playing 34 minutes as his replacement in the starting lineup. If Jaylen Brown (hamstring), who’s listed as probable, can’t play on Saturday, Scheierman could remain in the starting lineup.

After playing 46 of a possible 58 minutes in Friday’s double-overtime win over the Nets, Brown is on track to play Saturday night. A lot can change between now and the 8 PM Eastern tip time, however, so fantasy managers need to keep an eye out for more injury updates. If Brown doesn’t play, Baylor Scheierman may remain in the starting lineup for another game.

Pritchard has been inconsistent recently, but he was able to have a big night in this game. This was his highest-scoring game in over a month, and it was enough to help Boston get the win in double overtime. Pritchard has seen a bump in usage and production this year, and his efficiency has only dropped off slightly. He’ll look to stay hot in Chicago on Saturday.

Brown really struggled with his shot in this game, but he found other ways to make an impact and help Boston secure the win in double overtime. He fell short of scoring at least 30 points for a fourth straight game, but he was able to record his second triple-double of the season. Brown is enjoying the best scoring season of his career, but he has also stepped up as a playmaker. He’ll continue to be dominant in fantasy basketball for the rest of the season, and he should be more efficient as a scorer moving forward.

McCollum hasn’t been great with the Hawks, but he has been a consistent source of points. That held true in this game. McCollum should continue to see plenty of minutes for Atlanta, mostly as a reserve, but his impact in category leagues will remain limited. However, he should be able to contribute more in other categories than he did in this game. Just not much more.

Okongwu remains limited on the glass, but he has been able to make an impact in a multitude of categories consistently. He also led the Hawks in scoring in the win. Okongwu is currently providing third-round value in nine-category leagues this season and has been able to produce value across the board. This was a strong performance for him, and he’ll look to keep it going against the Pacers on Monday.

Johnson had a few rough performances in January, but the last three games have been strong. He has averaged 27.7 points, 16.3 rebounds and 7.7 assists per game during this stretch. He hasn’t been as strong in the other categories, but he has been a beast in points, rebounds and assists. He matched his career high for boards in this game, which he has now set three times this season. He’ll look to keep his dominance on the glass up against the Pacers on Monday.

Scheierman will make his third start of the season on Friday, replacing Derrick White (rest) in the Celtics’ opening five. The second-year guard hasn’t had much production so far this season, but did post a 9/7/4 line with three three-pointers and three steals in his most recent start. He’ll have a chance to put up decent numbers against the Nets as the Celtics try for back-to-back wins.

Given what the Nets showed in their 120-66 loss to the Knicks on Wednesday, it makes sense for the Celtics to give one of their mainstays Friday night off.

While not a must-stream player, the second-year guard will have every opportunity to offer tangible value if he starts.

Kennard has logged at least 19 minutes in seven of his last eight games, with his minutes increasing when the shots are falling. The Hawks’ guard was 4-of-5 from beyond the arc in Memphis, with the 18 points being double his tally from the prior three games combined. Kennard still isn’t at the point where he can be trusted in fantasy leagues, but more nights like Wednesday could change that.

While he did shoot 60 percent from the field and record a complete stat line, this was a rough night for Okongwu. In addition to fouling out, the Hawks’ center committed a season-high seven turnovers. The good news is that nights like this have not been the norm for Okongwu, so it’s safe to assume that he’ll bounce back. And over the past two weeks, he has provided third-round value in eight-cat formats.

Johnson wasn’t among the ten players named starters for next month’s All-Star Game, but there’s little doubt that he should be making the trip. The Hawks’ forward recorded another stellar stat line on Wednesday, finishing two assists shy of a triple-double. After taking one significant leap last season, Johnson has taken another, and that likely factored into the Hawks’ decision to trade Trae Young. Johnson has been a fantasy cornerstone this season, and that should be the case for future seasons as well.

In addition to providing the three-point production that deep-league managers expect, Hauser finished with solid numbers in the rebound and assist categories. Over the past two weeks, he has been a top-50 player in eight- and nine-cat formats. This current run may not last for the rest of the season, but Hauser is worth picking up if he’s sitting on the waiver wire. Rostered in 16 percent of Yahoo! leagues, Hauser won’t be too hard to find.

Queta has been one of the biggest surprises in fantasy basketball thus far, using a solid run with Portugal and EuroBasket as a springboard into locking down the starting center role in Boston. A top-100 player in nine-cat formats, the 7-footer finished Wednesday’s victory a rebound shy of a double-double while also blocking four shots. Over the past two weeks, Queta, who’s rostered in just 40 percent of Yahoo! leagues, has been a top-50 player.
