It’s official: Luka Garza will be playing college basketball for the Iowa Hawkeyes in 2020-2021.
The presumptive national player of the year favorite, Garza has Iowa fans dreaming of hanging new banners from Carver-Hawkeye Arena and of watching the talented big man break several program records, including the career scoring record of 2,116 currently held by Roy Marble. To accomplish these goals, Garza will need to continue his streak of dominant play from last season, and arguably elevate it as he faces increased pressure from the fans and media, as well as the laser focus of opposing players and coaches who spent all offseason formulating strategies for how to contain him.
