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.
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.

Celtics' Hugo Gonzalez: Another strong night on boards
Rotowire
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.
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.

Rotowire
Gonzalez finished Tuesday's 123-117 win over the Knicks with four points (2-6 FG, 0-3 3Pt), five rebounds and one steal across 22 minutes.
Gonzalez logged 20-plus minutes for just the second time this season and saw double-digit minutes for the first time since Nov. 9. However, the rookie struggled to find his groove on the offensive end. Over his last five appearances, the 19-year-old has shot just 3-for-10 from the field.

Celtics' Hugo Gonzalez: Questionable to return
Rotowire
Gonzalez is questionable to return to Tuesday's game against the 76ers due to a left ankle sprain, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.
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 the rookie can't return, look for Baylor Scheierman and Jordan Walsh to see a slight bump in minutes off the bench, depending on the defensive matchups.

Celtics' Hugo Gonzalez: Plays just eight minutes
Rotowire
Gonzalez logged two points (1-1 FG) and one rebound in eight minutes during Monday's 105-103 loss to the Jazz.
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 when the team is at full strength.

Rotowire

Celtics' Hugo Gonzalez: Picked by Boston
Rotowire
Gonzalez was selected by the Celtics with the No. 28 overall pick in the 2025 NBA Draft.
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.
