Hugo González News, Rumors, Updates - Boston Celtics

Rejoins parent club The Celtics recalled Gonzalez from the G League's Maine Celtics following Monday's practice.

Impact Gonzalez and fellow rookie Amari Williams reported to Maine on Monday to practice with the G League squad as well as the rehabbing Jayson Tatum, who was cleared to take part in portions of the session in what marked a major milestone in his rehab program for his surgically repaired Achilles. As expected, Gonzalez was immediately recalled following the session, so he'll be available for the Celtics' next game Wednesday versus the Bulls.

Fails to fire in win Gonzalez provided two points (1-8 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 0-1 FT), four rebounds and one assist across 22 minutes during Friday's 112-93 win over the Kings.

Impact Gonzalez offered very little in the way of tangible production, scoring no more than three points for the third time in the past four games. It's been an interesting rookie campaign thus far for Gonzalez, full of ups and downs. However, the downs have certainly outnumbered the ups, with Gonzalez averaging just 4.1 points and 2.2 rebounds in 15.3 minutes per game, through his first 43 appearances.

Sends game to 2OT Gonzalez notched 10 points (4-4 FG, 2-2 3Pt), seven rebounds, one assist, one block and one steal across 19 minutes during Friday's 130-126 double-overtime victory over Brooklyn.

Impact Gonzalez played just 19 minutes and only attempted four shots, but he arguably had the biggest impact on the outcome. Celtics head coach Joe Mazoulla inserted Gonzalez into the game for the final possession of the first overtime, where the rookie hit nothing but net on a game-tying corner three. It's worth monitoring whether or not he'll see additional minutes in the following games, especially after an impressive showing on the boards.

Sliding to bench Monday Gonzalez won't start against the Pacers on Monday, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Impact With Sam Hauser (hamstring) back in the lineup after a one-game absence, Gonzalez will slide to the second unit. Over six appearances (one start) so far this month, the rookie first-rounder has averaged 2.7 points and 4.2 rebounds in 15.5 minutes per tilt.

Starting sans Hauser Gonzalez will start against the Spurs on Saturday, Sean Grande of NBC Sports Boston reports.

Impact The rookie first-rounder will get the starting nod for just the second time this season due to Sam Hauser (hamstring) being sidelined. Over five appearances this month, Gonzalez has averaged 3.2 points and 4.2 rebounds in 16.0 minutes per contest, though he'll likely see an uptick in minutes Sunday.

Muted role continues Gonzalez provided five points (1-5 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-2 FT), seven rebounds and one assist across 12 minutes during Monday's 115-101 victory over the Bulls.

Impact Gonzalez played fewer than 20 minutes for the fourth straight game, continuing his recent downward trend. Boston continues to shuffle its frontcourt rotation, impacting players like Gonzalez, Jordan Walsh, Sam Hauser and Josh Minott. Given the uncertainty, it's hard to trust any of them outside of deeper formats.

Hits rock bottom in win Gonzalez amassed zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt), one rebound and one assist in 12 minutes during Friday's 140-122 win over the Pacers.

Impact Gonzalez was terrible Friday, failing to score in just 12 minutes. After seemingly carving out a meaningful role for himself over the past few games, Gonzalez saw his minutes evaporate. Boston is not afraid to shuffle its rotation based on who is playing well on any given night, meaning players like Gonzalez are almost impossible to trust, outside of deeper formats.

Another strong night on boards Gonzalez provided six points (3-5 FG, 0-2 3Pt), 11 rebounds, one assist, two blocks and one steal over 37 minutes during Monday's 103-95 win over the Pacers.

Impact Gonzalez was held to single digits in the scoring column after putting up 10 points in two straight contests, but he managed to make an impact on the glass. He also saw his largest workload of the 2025-26 season after averaging 22.0 minutes over his previous four matchups. Gonzalez likely saw a slight uptick in minutes Monday due to the absence of Jordan Walsh (illness), but the rookie should remain a key piece of the team's rotation even after Walsh returns.
