Dalano Banton - Back in rotation Tuesday Banton totaled no counting stats in four minutes during Tuesday's 97-81 win over the Suns.

Impact Banton logged four minutes, moving back into the rotation after sitting out the previous four games. Despite his reputation as a silly-season specialist, it would appear as though Banton is going to struggle to play any sort of consistent role for the remainder of the season. With Boston poised to make a playoff push, expect to see him spending more time on the bench than on the court.

Luka Garza - Muted role continues Garza contributed three points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt) and three rebounds in four minutes during Tuesday's 97-81 win over the Suns.

Impact Garza continues to play third-fiddle following the acquisition of Nikola Vucevic prior to the trade deadline, playing limited minutes behind both Vucevic and Neemias Queta. In four games over the past two weeks, Garza has averaged just 1.5 points and 1.0 rebounds in 3.6 minutes per contest, leaving him well and truly off the fantasy radar.

Neemias Queta - Another double-double Tuesday Queta supplied 14 points (5-10 FG, 4-4 FT), 13 rebounds, three assists and two blocks across 27 minutes during Tuesday's 97-81 win over the Suns.

Impact Queta recorded his second straight double-double, once again outperforming Nikola Vucevic. While the addition of Vucevic has had an impact on Queta's playing time, the fact that he is a superior defender appears to have him ahead of Vucevic in the rotation. Assuming he can see close to 22 minutes per night moving forward, Queta should still be able to flirt with top 100 value.

The two-way player has appeared in five outings (one start) so far this month, during which he has averaged 4.4 points, 3.4 rebounds and 1.0 assists in 16.6 minutes per contest.
