Luka Garza's journey has taken him from Minnesota to Boston, where he has signed a two-year, $5.5 million contract with the Celtics. After the Timberwolves opted not to retain him, Garza's potential was recognized by Boston, particularly following the team's recent roster changes. With the departures of Kristaps Porzingis and Luke Kornet, Garza is positioned for significant playing time.

Previously, Garza struggled to find minutes in a crowded Minnesota roster that included notable players like Rudy Gobert and Naz Reid. His father, Frank Garza, expressed pride in his son’s achievements and excitement about this fresh opportunity. This move highlights the Celtics' long-term interest in Garza, showcasing their belief in his development.
