Even though the box score won't show much I thought he did fairly well in the 15 minutes he played given the circumstances and also against a pretty stout Detroit frontcourt. Had a few nice blocks and also had the game winning rebound tip after the FT miss.

They need to give him some more minutes or at least give him a little exposure even after Queta returns. He certainly to me looked better than Garza. Garza I acknowledge puts in the effort but man he's just rough out there and at times clueless.

We might having something with Amari though, even if it's like a 4th big or fringe 3rd big on a contender.

For some reason he reminds me of ex Celtic Amir Johnson. Tall and lanky, not much of an offensive game, but with really nice defensive instincts.

What I find crazy is that Amari is about to turn 24 in January.

For a reasonably old rookie, he is extremely raw. Obviously the Celtics have a drafting formula and he must fit into the equation, but I am perplexed as to how much growth can be achieved at his age.
