In a matchup highlighted by stellar performances from Payton Pritchard (28 points, sinking seven three-pointers) and Jayson Tatum (23 points, six assists, and seven rebounds), Neemias Queta came off the bench to log 19 solid minutes.

The Portuguese international recorded seven points (shooting 3-for-6 from the field), five rebounds, one assist, and two blocks, standing out with a remarkable +32 plus-minus.

Alongside his rim protection, Queta added a highlight-reel slam off a well-placed alley-oop feed from Hugo Gonzalez.
