Questionable to return
Gonzalez is questionable to return to Tuesday's game against the 76ers due to a left ankle sprain, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Gonzalez is a depth option off the bench for the Celtics who's been heralded for his defensive ability, but he doesn't contribute much in fantasy. If Gonzalez can't return, look for Baylor Scheierman, Jordan Walsh and possibly Chris Boucher to see more minutes off the bench, depending on the defensive matchups.
Nov 4, 2025
Plays just eight minutes
Gonzalez logged two points (1-1 FG) and one rebound in eight minutes during Monday's 105-103 loss to the Jazz.
ANALYSIS
After drawing a start at the end of October, Gonzalez was moved back to the bench and has averaged 11 minutes in the four games since. The rookie has posted multiple steals in three of six appearances this season, but he remains on the fringes of Boston's rotation and is unlikely to see much playing time.
Oct 27, 2025
Sliding back to bench
Gonzalez won't start in Monday's game against the Pelicans.
ANALYSIS
Gonzalez got the starting nod in Sunday's loss to the Pistons, finishing with zero points (0-2 FG), two steals, one rebound and one block in 18 minutes. However, Josh Minott will replace him in the starting five on Monday.
Oct 27, 2025
Shoutout in first start
Gonzalez chipped in zero points (0-2 FG), one rebound, one block and two steals in 18 minutes during Sunday's 119-113 loss to Detroit.
ANALYSIS
Gonzalez received his first career start on Sunday, but didn't do much offensively to seize the opportunity. The rookie did look good on the defensive end, but finished with only 18 minutes played and only two shot attempts. Maybe the bigger disappointment was his single rebound for a Celtics team that has been outrebounded 148 to 115 over their first three games. The young forward has a chance to bounce back on Friday at Philadelphia.
Oct 26, 2025
Earns first start Sunday
Gonzalez is in the starting lineup for Sunday's game against the Pistons.
ANALYSIS
Gonzalez made his NBA regular-season debut Friday and held his own, posting six points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, two steals and one assist across 23 minutes. With the rookie stepping into the starting lineup, Sam Hauser shifts to a bench role.
Oct 24, 2025
First taste of regular-season play
Gonzalez supplied six points (3-6 FG, 0-2 3Pt), four rebounds, one assist and two steals over 23 minutes during the Celtics' 105-95 loss to the Knicks on Friday.
ANALYSIS
The No. 28 pick of the 2025 NBA Draft didn't see the floor Opening Night against the 76ers on Wednesday, but Gonzalez made his official NBA debut Friday, when he checked in at the 5:32 mark of the first quarter. He didn't fill up the box score, but he was on the floor for most of the fourth quarter and his 23 minutes were second most among the Boston reserves behind Anfernee Simons (27). Gonzalez also led the Celtics with a plus-7 point differential, and the Spaniard's hustle could earn him a consistent spot in the rotation as the season progresses.
Oct 17, 2025
Modest production in preseason
Gonzalez averaged 5.5 points, 2.8 rebounds, 0.8 assists and 1.0 blocks in 16.3 minutes per game across four preseason contests.
ANALYSIS
After a solid Summer League, Gonzalez had a modest preseason. The rookie has yet to flash at the NBA level, but he's only 19 years old and has drawn plenty of praise from the coaching staff.
Jul 14, 2025
Poor shooting effort in SL loss
Gonzalez totaled 10 points (3-12 FG, 1-7 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds and three assists over 27 minutes in Monday's 100-96 Summer League loss to the Heat.
ANALYSIS
Gonzalez struggled with his shot for a second consecutive game and is now 7-for-24 from the field and 4-for-12 from three-point range in Summer League play. The No. 28 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft spent last season competing with Real Madrid in EuroLeague.
Jul 11, 2025
Fills up stat sheet in win
Gonzalez racked up 12 points (4-12 FG, 3-5 3Pt, 1-5 FT), four rebounds, five assists, one steal and two blocks across 28 minutes during Friday's Summer League 92-78 win against the Grizzlies.
ANALYSIS
Gonzalez got off to a good start to his first Summer League stint, as he contributed in multiple areas. The rookie forward was selected with the No. 28 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft and will be looking to make an impression in Las Vegas.
Jun 25, 2025
Picked by Boston
Gonzalez was selected by the Celtics with the No. 28 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft.
ANALYSIS
Gonzalez played in the EuroLeague for Real Madrid last season, an impressive feat for a 19-year-old, appearing in 57 games and averaging just 10 minutes. At 6-foot-6, Gonzalez is a heady wing who plays at his own pace and uses his strong frame to get to his spots. He's a solid passer but can be a bit careless with the ball. Overall, Gonzalez's skill set should translate to the NBA, though he'll need to refine certain parts of his game before making an impact on the Celtics, who are in limbo after Jayson Tatum's (Achilles) injury.
