Makes Surprise Start in Celtics' Decisive Game 7 Loss to 76ers
Luka Garza was part of a surprising starting lineup utilized by coach Joe Mazzulla during the Boston Celtics' Game 7 loss to the Philadelphia 76ers. Despite having limited starting experience throughout the regular season, Garza was called upon in the high-stakes elimination game as the team dealt with the absence of Jayson Tatum. The decision to start Garza, alongside other reserve players, was noted as a head-scratching move following the team's failure to advance.
