Steph Curry passes Kevin Garnett for 21st on the NBA all-time scoring list

It came in tonight's 120–107 Warriors win in Brooklyn, with Curry finishing with 27 points. Steph made history: with a 4th-quarter 3, he passed Kevin Garnett (26,071) to move into 21st all-time on the NBA career scoring list. #NBA #Warriors #StephenCurry #KevinGarnett #NBAHistory #AllTimeScoring

KG to fans on NBA All-Star: “Stop voting LeBron in. Save your vote.”

On a recent segment, KG straight-up told fans not to vote for LeBron, arguing it’s a wasted vote if the guy might not even suit up: “All you people out there that’s going to vote for Bron, save your vote. He didn’t play in it last year. Why would you expect him to play?” And to be fair… LeBron was selected for the 2025 All-Star Game but sat out because of lingering foot/ankle discomfort. So here’s the real question: Who gets snubbed if “automatic LeBron” takes a spot again? #NBA #AllStar #LeBronJames #KevinGarnett #NBADiscussion #NBAAllStarGame

KG is finally coming back to Minnesota

After nearly a decade of distance, Kevin Garnett is reuniting with the Minnesota Timberwolves and the Minnesota Lynx in a broad new ambassador-style role that spans business initiatives, community/fan engagement, and content development. The other huge part: Minnesota will finally hold KG’s long-awaited No. 21 jersey retirement ceremony, expected sometime over the next two seasons. This thaw has been a long time coming. KG had been estranged from the franchise after retiring in 2016, largely because of his fallout with former owner Glen Taylor—to the point where he wouldn’t let the Wolves retire his number. The key change now is relationships with the new ownership group Marc Lore and Alex Rodriguez, which helped both sides find common ground. For Wolves fans, it’s basically the emotional “missing chapter” getting fixed: the greatest player in franchise history finally being honored in the building. #NBA #Timberwolves #KevinGarnett #Minnesota #NBALegends #JerseyRetirement #WNBA #LynxNation

KG’s Daughter Kapri Makes Waves at Michigan

Big Ticket fans, how about this? Kevin Garnett’s daughter Kapri just signed with the Michigan Wolverines volleyball squad, and the internet is loving KG’s classic two-word reaction: “Go Blue.” The Hall of Famer always wanted to play for Michigan, but went straight to the NBA instead. Now, Kapri’s carrying the Garnett legacy to Ann Arbor. Anyone else think we’re about to see a new rivalry brewing in NCAA volleyball? #Sports #Basketball #KevinGarnett

Is the 2002–03 All-NBA First Team the Greatest Ever?

All five were in their primes. All five were franchise-defining. And every single one could dominate both ends of the floor. This lineup had zero weaknesses — elite scoring, defense, rebounding, playmaking, leadership. Is this the greatest All-NBA First Team of the 21st century? #NBA #AllNBA #KobeBryant #TracyMcGrady #TimDuncan #Shaq #KevinGarnett #NBALegends

KG Sounds Off: Flopping in the NBA Era

Big Ticket Kevin Garnett just went off about how international players have changed the NBA, especially when it comes to flopping. KG says all the extra acting and running to the refs just wasn’t part of the game back in his day. Do you agree with KG, or is this just the evolution of the league? Let’s hear your takes! #Sports #Basketball #KevinGarnett

The Timberwolves Traded Away a Dynasty? 🤯

Back in 1996, the Minnesota Timberwolves drafted Ray Allen… only to trade him for Stephon Marbury. Sure, Marbury was good — but imagine prime Ray Allen alongside prime Kevin Garnett. Elite shooting, perfect floor spacing, and longevity to keep the Wolves competitive for years. KG might’ve never left Minnesota if they had paired him with Ray. What do you think: did the Wolves blow a potential dynasty? 🏆 #RayAllen #KevinGarnett #StephonMarbury #Timberwolves #NBAWhatIf #NBADebate #Sports #NBA

The Trade That Keeps on Giving… to Boston

Back in 2013, the Nets went all-in for Kevin Garnett, Paul Pierce, and Jason Terry, thinking they’d be title contenders. What they gave up? Three first-round picks (plus a swap) that turned into Jaylen Brown, Jayson Tatum, and the foundation of the Celtics’ current dynasty window. Brooklyn got one playoff series win out of it. Boston got a decade of contention. Some trades age like wine. This one aged like milk. #NBA #NBATrades #Celtics #Nets #JaylenBrown #JaysonTatum #KevinGarnett #PaulPierce #NBAHistory #TradeFail #Sports
