Boston Celtics 7-footer Neemias Queta will sign a new four-year, $56 million extension with the franchise, his agent Bill Duffy of WME Basketball tells ESPN. Queta has established himself as a critical Celtics piece – from two-way contracts to averaging 10.2 points, 8.4 rebounds and 1.3 blocks as starting center.
Jaylen Brown said he was grateful for his time in Boston overall:
“I put my heart into this city. Because that’s what I said I would do when I got drafted. ‘I’m gonna go to war for this city.’ And I feel like that’s what I did. We got a championship. I felt like we could’ve got more, but I understand. I’m just grateful for my experience.”
A young Celtics fan went viral in the last 24 hours after Jaylen Brown, his favorite player, got traded.
Brown already responded:
“We will always be friends”
