WayneFleekHoosier Posted July 30, 2021 Posted July 30, 2021 Luka Garza got drafted last night. Maybe he doesn't make it long term, but it's hard to pass up on that skill set and size. Rico 1 Quote

NBA coach can hide him on defense, plus he’s huge and can at least clog the lane. Plus he hustles and plays a smart game. If NBA doesn’t work, he’ll be a Superstar in a euro league. thebigweave 1 Quote

He was probably the worst defending big man in the Big Ten last year. I mean look where Frank Kaminsky is. He was super skilled on offense like Garza but was also a great defender college. Now Frank is a bench man. Quote
