Celtics decline team option on NBA champ Neemias Queta

After picking up a team option on Sam Hauser earlier today, the Celtics have opted to not pick up Neemias Queta’s for next season per The Boston Globe’s Adam Himmelsbach.

That doesn’t mean that Queta won’t be with the team next season. Both parties could still pursue a long-term deal in free agency after he became another success story for the Celtics and their G League affiliate in Maine. Queta originally started the season on a two-way contract after being released by the Sacramento Kings, but was converted on a standard deal for the playoff run in April.
