Starting in place of Jaylen Brown (illness), González had the best night of his rookie campaign in Milwaukee. Recording season-highs in points and rebounds, the 6-foot-6 wing finished with his second double-double. Shooting 3-of-8 from beyond the arc, González was also responsible for five defensive contributions. His value in redraft leagues depends on Brown’s availability, while dynasty league managers must continue to roster González.

Celtics head coach Joe Mazzulla made two changes to his starting lineup, one due to Jaylen Brown’s unavailability. He’ll be replaced in the lineup by González, while Vučević will make his first start as a Celtic after coming off the bench in his first nine appearances. He replaces Neemias Queta, who had a career night in Sunday’s win over the 76ers and is resting.

Sam Hauser (hamstring) is out for Saturday’s game, leaving a spot to fill within the Celtics’ starting lineup. González has received the nod and will make his second career start, with Jordan Walsh remaining on the bench.

It’s been fascinating to track González’s growth over the course of his rookie season as his role continues to expand with the upstart Celtics. The 19-year-old came within one point of his season high in this one while adding six rebounds and two steals, continuing to flash his defensive upside as a disruptive on-ball presence. The offense is still catching up, but the minutes are trending in the right direction — he’s logged at least 27 minutes in four of Boston’s last five games since December 19. He remains a work in progress offensively, but the pathway to sustained relevance is becoming clearer by the night.

González remains a work in progress on the offensive end of the floor, but he’s showed that he can defend at a near-elite level in spurts off the bench as a 19-year-old rookie. He got hot in this one, pulling down a season-high 10 rebounds to notch his first career double-double. He’s experienced a significant uptick in minutes recently, playing at least 15 minutes in six of Boston’s last eight contests since December 2. He doesn’t offer enough scoring potential to merit consideration outside of extremely deep leagues but he’s certainly a player on the rise to monitor over the next few months.

González was one of a few players that were productive off the bench for Boston in this game. Sam Hauser added 15 points on five triples, and Anfernee Simons scored 14 points. However, González was able to make a larger impact on the defensive end while scoring in double figures for the second time in his career and setting a new career high for rebounds. The rookie has been a solid reserve for Boston lately and is an intriguing piece in dynasty leagues.

González sprained his left ankle during Tuesday’s game against the 76ers. The 19-year-old guard was said to be good enough to return to the game, though he remained out. González is now probable for Wednesday’s game against the Grizzlies, which indicates the injury isn’t too severe.

With White and Brown cleared to play, the lone change to the Celtics’ starting lineup is González. The rookie, who played well in Friday’s loss to the Knicks, including spending time guarding Jalen Brunson, replaces Sam Hauser. González may not be a great source of counting stats currently, but he’s worth watching, especially if asked to defend Cade Cunningham. Hauser can still provide three-pointers off the bench.
