Luka Garza is slated to announce his decision on returning to Iowa for a senior season or entering the NBA Draft on Sunday, August 2nd. That’s far later than we had all expected to hear an announcement, but still seems far too soon given all the uncertainty around both the NBA and a potential NCAA season.
Therein lies the problem for Hawkeye fans. Since the 2019-2020 season was cut short and Garza was robbed of his chance to help Iowa on a Big Ten or NCAA Tournament run, the smart money was on the DC big man returning to college.
