Luka Garza News, Rumors, Updates - Boston Celtics

Starting sans Queta Garza is in the starting lineup for Wednesday's game against Detroit, Justin Turpin of WEEI.com reports.

Impact Neemias Queta is missing his first game of the season due to a sprained ankle. Garza has averaged 7.0 points, 4.4 rebounds and 0.7 assists in 15.2 minutes per tilt over 10 games this month, but his minutes should creep into the 20s in the first unit against the Pistons.

Sees 20 minutes off bench Garza finished Tuesday's 113-99 win over Brooklyn with five points (1-1 FG, 3-4 FT), five rebounds and one steal across 20 minutes.

Impact Neemias Queta has a strong grip on the starting center role, but Garza doesn't have much competition as the backup center with Chris Boucher completely out of the mix. Through 14 outings, Garza is averaging 14.1 minutes per game with 7.1 points, 4.2 rebounds, 0.8 assists, 0.4 steals and 0.4 blocks on 58.1 percent shooting from the field.

Productive again off bench Garza totaled nine points (3-7 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 3-4 FT) and eight rebounds in 19 minutes during Tuesday's 102-100 loss to the Celtics.

Impact Garza has been granted more opportunities in two straight matchups and has made them count. He came close to a double-double Tuesday night and shouldered his heaviest workload of the year in terms of minutes. Neemias Queta has also been playing well for Boston, so while it doesn't look as though Garza will take hold of the starting center role anytime soon, it's been reassuring to see the Iowa product add value in the scoring column and on the boards when given the chance.

Minimal impact Monday Garza ended Monday's 105-103 loss to Utah with two points (0-2 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 2-2 FT), two rebounds, one assist and one steal in 11 minutes.

Impact Garza has failed to make much of an impact in recent outings, scoring just two points in as many games. It appears he's won the job as Boston's backup center behind Neemias Queta, but Garza's production hasn't been worth a roster spot in most fantasy leagues.

Logs 16 off bench in win Garza accumulated 16 points (5-7 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds and one assist across 19 minutes during Monday's 122-90 win over the Pelicans.

Impact Garza exploded for his first double digit scoring performance this season, which may have been fueled partly by the blowout nature of the game, with Boston pulling its starters in the fourth quarter. Regardless, Garza has shown that he can be an asset among the rotation if given the opportunity, and may possibly be awarded more playing time if he can put up another strong outing.
