According to reports from ESPN authoritative journalist Shams Charania, the Boston Celtics reached an agreement with Luka Garza, a inside player who previously played for the Minnesota Timberwolves. Garza received a two-year contract from the Celtics with a total amount of 5.5 million.

Garza was born in December 1998 and is 26 years old, 208cm tall and weighs 110kg. She is the inside player from the University of Iowa in the 52nd round of the Detroit Pistons in the 2021 NBA Draft. Garza played for the Pistons and the Timberwolves during his career. His playing time in each season is actually relatively limited, and he is also limited by playing time. His performance is also relatively average. However, Garza has been able to stay in the NBA in these seasons, which also shows that his ability is still good.

In the NBA regular season last season, Garza played 39 games in 82 games, averaging 5.6 minutes per game, averaging 3.5 points, 1.4 rebounds, 0.3 assists, 0.2 steals and 0.1 blocks, and 0.3 turnovers and 0.7 fouls. He shot 49.5%, three-point shooting percentage 27.8%, and free throw shooting percentage 68.6%. In the playoffs, Garza played 5 games in total, with averaging 3.7 minutes per game, averaging 2.6 points and 0.6 rebounds, and 0.2 fouls, shooting percentage of 100% and three-point shooting percentage of 100%. In the NBA Development League regular season last season, Garza played 3 times for the Iowa Wolves, a subordinate team of the Timberwolves, with averaging 36 minutes per game, with averaging 36.7 points, 12.3 rebounds, 0.3 steals and 1.7 blocks per game, and 3 turnovers and 2.7 fouls. His shooting percentage was 57.4%, his three-point shooting percentage was 33.3%, and his free throw shooting percentage was 85.7%.

Garza doesn't get any playing time and performance opportunities in the NBA, and his data is also relatively bleak. However, in the NBA Development League, he has a dominant performance. He has amazing scoring ability, has a rich offensive method, and can also play his value with a large number of ball rights and shots. Not only that, Garza also has certain passing ability and support ability, and he can also provide a lot of support to the team in terms of front and back rebounds and rim protection. Garza is a player with very distinct advantages and disadvantages. He is a top scorer in the low-level league. His role on the offensive end is amazing, but his shortcomings in athletic ability and movement speed will also lead to problems on the defensive end. I wonder if Garza will usher in a turning point in his career after joining the Celtics. Will he get more playing time next season and gain a foothold in the NBA?
