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.

EDGE Analysis

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.

Garza posted five points (1-4 FG, 1-3 3Pt, 2-2 FT) and three rebounds in 11 minutes during Sunday's 114-108 loss to the Trail Blazers.

EDGE Analysis

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.

Garza tallied 12 points (4-9 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 4-6 FT), 10 rebounds, two assists and one block over 26 minutes during the Celtics' 112-96 win over the Raptors on Saturday.

EDGE Analysis

Garza was a healthy DNP in the four games prior to Saturday's contest, but he was thurst into a more prominent role in the rotation during the back end of the Celtics' back-to-back set. He played a season-high 26 minutes, and his nine offensive rebounds could earn him some more consistent playing time in the short term.

Garza is not in the Celtics' starting lineup against the Timberwolves on Saturday, Gary Washburn of The Boston Globe reports.

EDGE Analysis

Garza started Wednesday's win against the Pistons, though he failed to score on his lone field-goal attempt and hauled in just one rebound over 11 minutes. He'll revert to a bench role Saturday due to Neemias Queta (ankle) being cleared to return.

Garza closed with zero points (0-1 FG, 0-1 3Pt) and one rebound across 11 minutes during Wednesday's 117-114 win over the Pistons.

EDGE Analysis

Garza got the starting nod, replacing Neemias Queta, who was sidelined due to an ankle injury. Despite the promotion, Garza was a non-factor, going scoreless in 11 minutes. Outside of a handful of encouraging performances, Garza has been mostly disappointing, averaging 6.7 points and 4.0 rebounds in 14.6 minutes per game through the first 16 games.

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

EDGE Analysis

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.

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.

EDGE Analysis

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.

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 76ers.

EDGE Analysis

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.

Garza logged 16 points (7-8 FG, 0-1 3Pt, 2-4 FT), eight rebounds, three assists and one steal across 17 minutes during Sunday's 111-107 win over the Magic.

EDGE Analysis

Garza played his most minutes Sunday since Oct. 27, when he also dropped 16 points. While Garza's role is very inconsistent, performances like Sunday's provide optimism that he may be able to garner more playing time moving forward.

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.

EDGE Analysis

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.
