Bosnia falls to Lithuania 78-73 despite Boston big man Luka Garza going off in FIBA play

Bosnia and Herzegovina suffered a 78-73 loss to Lithuania in FIBA EuroBasket play on Monday, despite Luka Garza's impressive performance for the Boston Celtics. The Lithuanian National Team prevailed, securing a victory backed by Lithuania's strong third quarter. Garza, who shot 5-of-10 from the field and hit 2-of-4 from beyond the arc, contributed 14 points and 7 rebounds in the defeat.

With this loss, Bosnia and Herzegovina's FIBA summer record stands at 3-5, making advancement to the next stage unlikely. The team is scheduled to face the Icelandic National Team on November 26, 2026, without Garza, who will join the Celtics for the 2026-27 NBA regular season.
