BRIGHTON, MA — “We want Luka! We want Luka!”
Chants echoed throughout the Track at New Balance on Thursday afternoon, as kids ranging from seven to 14 took part in the Jr. Celtics Academy summer camp, presented by New Balance. Luka Garza, one of the newest members of the Boston Celtics, jumped from group to group, aiding them in shooting competitions. Needless to say, he was a hot commodity.
As the campers pleaded Garza to join their team next, the 26-year-old egged them on. He pumped up the crowds and put his hand to his ear with a huge grin on his face.
