Bosnia-Herzegovina basketball player Luka Garza took advantage of the opportunity he got in the Boston Celtics jersey and played a very effective game, but it was not enough for his team to avoid defeat.
Boston lost at home to the Denver Nuggets with a score of 114:110 in one of the most interesting NBA duels played last night.
Garza spent 19 minutes on the floor and during that time scored 11 points with five rebounds. He shot a perfect 5-of-5 from the field, including one hit three-pointer, making him without a single miss.
The match was extremely uncertain, which is confirmed by the fact that the teams took turns in the lead as many as 26 times. Boston had a three-point lead at the end, but Denver then made a key run.
Peyton Watson stood out in particular, scoring 30 points and leading the visitors to an 11-point lead three minutes before the end, which turned out to be crucial.
The Celtics managed to reduce the deficit to four points, but there was not enough time for a complete turnaround.
Denver thus achieved a very important and somewhat surprising victory, without the help of the injured Nikola Jokić, who did not play due to a knee injury.
