When you get waived as a former second-round pick, it's unclear where your career's headed. Rather than Neemias Queta letting emotions get the best of him or allowing his mind to run rampant, he took a more pragmatic approach.
"As soon as I got cut, I just tried to pack and stuff and tried to get ready," Queta shared after his latest opportunity to remind the Sacramento Kings what they missed out on after waiving the former 39th overall pick two years into his NBA tenure.
Packing occupied his time and his mind. Not only did that help him turn the page quickly, but by the time Queta was almost done, the Boston Celtics had already called to offer him his next opportunity.
