Celtics coach Mazzulla hails Queta's potential

Jayson Tatum posted 28 points and nine assists for the visiting Celtics, who breezed to a 123-93 victory against the Atlanta Hawks.

Derrick White added 21, while Payton Pritchard scored 18 points off the bench as Boston (7-1) won their third straight game. Jrue Holiday scored 16 and Queta tallied 10 points and seven rebounds while Sam Hauser also scored 10.

"He's just grown a lot as a player and, quite honestly, he doesn't know how good he can be," Mazzulla said of 25-year-old Queta.

"He's got a great ceiling, so the standard is very high. I thought he did some great things for us tonight, but when you're as good as he can be, he's just got to - we all have to hold him to that standard every single night."
