Former Hawkeye Luka Garza Has a New NBA Home
- On June 30, 2025, Luka Garza agreed to a fully guaranteed two-year contract worth $5.5 million to join the Boston Celtics as a center.
- Garza became a free agent after the Minnesota Timberwolves declined his player option following three seasons in Minnesota where he averaged 3.5 points in limited minutes.
- At 26, Garza, a former Iowa star who earned top collegiate player recognition in 2021, has signed with Boston as the team looks to bolster its frontcourt following offseason roster moves.
- Selected late in the second round of the 2021 NBA Draft, Garza, a 6-foot-10 center, was a prolific scorer at Iowa with an average of 24.1 points per game, though his defensive consistency in the NBA has been lacking.
- Boston gains scoring depth up front with Garza while facing an offseason with key departures and uncertain roster spots, indicating a need for further adjustments this summer.
