Kevin Garnett on Shai: If any player is built for the limelight, I’d say it’s this kid. This kid has always been chill. He’s always played the Bruce Wayne role. He’s always been the fly-ass kid to the side, you know what I’m saying? If you go back over time and watch, every time I’ve seen him at the dunk contest, he’s always had something dope on. He’s always had his own little flair, and he’s always been in his own kind of lane. -via YouTube / February 24, 2025
A little birdie says Kevin Garnett will become part of the Timberwolves’ front office as soon as it’s official that Lore and Rodriguez get ownership. -via St. Paul Pioneer Press / February 24, 2025
Kevin Garnett on Jayson Tatum: ‘He keeps developing and he’s growing his game. He looks stronger this year, he’s playing through fouls, playing through a lot of contact. I would like him to be a little more consistent on the on the second and third effort. Sometimes when he done get fouls he’ll melt right there and kind of complain a little bit but I think at least for me when I watch Tatum, he’s learning how to take over games. Obviously he has a a bunch of talent around him so he doesn’t have to do too much but I think him and Jaylen Brown do a great job of being the head of the snake of that team. I love all the pieces that they have up there that has created this green buzzsaw and I think Tatum’s going to get even better. As he gets older he’s going to get smarter, I think his IQ is going to grow, he’s going to get better at playmaking, I see his handles has gotten a light tighter for him to go in and out and be able to go in and get fouls and stuff. I see the growth in his game, the growth in his confidence coming down, being able to put the nail in the coffin, or hit big threes. I see what he’s doing but I’m excited for his growth and what he’s going to be. I don’t think that we’re seeing the best of him yet and I think the best of him is yet to come.’ -via YouTube / February 22, 2025
