Joe Mazzulla Explains What Luka Garza Is Doing to Earn Minutes In Celtics Rotation - NESN.com Luka Garza has been impressive since returning to the Celtics rotation in recent weeks, particuarly due to his offensive rebounding

Provides spark in victory Garza recorded 15 points (6-8 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), six rebounds, one block and one steal across 19 minutes during Tuesday's 129-119 victory over Utah.

Impact Garza bounced back in a big way after scoring five points on 1-of-4 shooting from the field in Sunday's loss to Portland. He logged double-digit minutes for a fifth straight game and provided a crucial spark off the bench, finishing as one of six Celtics players to score in double figures. The big man has had an inconsistent role in the Boston rotation this season, though he has seen meaningful minutes of late. Garza has appeared in five straight matchups for Boston following a four-game stretch in which he did not see the court. During that span, he has averaged 10.6 points and 6.4 rebounds over 21.4 minutes per tilt.

Impact Garza has been effective in limited minutes off the Boston bench recently. Over his last four appearances, he's seen 22.0 minutes per contest with 9.5 points, 6.5 rebounds and 1.8 assists on 60.0 percent shooting. His workload Sunday was disappointing, but he's certainly worth keeping an eye on in deeper formats.
