Kevin Garnett and the Wolves, the big reconciliation!
Nine years after retirement, Kevin Garnett will work with again Timberwolves…and also with Link. According to ESPNThe Hall of Fame is preparing to take on the role of combining business, community action, fan initiatives and content creation.
Above all, the franchise plans to finally retire his number 21 in Minnesota. The file has long been blocked by a feud between Kevin Garnett and former owner Glenn Taylor. Since the end of his career in 2016, “KG” has kept his distance from the organization and refused to have his number retired as long as Glenn Taylor was at the helm.
The (complicated) change in management at the head of the club, therefore, ended up unlocking everything. Marc Lore etc Alec Rodriguezwho are now at the helm of Wolves and Link have renewed dialogue with the local icon until they find common ground after finalizing their takeover in 2025.
An absolute Minneapolis legend, Kevin Garnett is the franchise leader in points, rebounds, assists, steals and blocks, and remains the Wolves’ only MVP (2004). Enough to give this rapprochement an extra dimension, at a time when Minnesota wants to strengthen its culture and connection to its past.
