Kevin Garnett Salutes Shirtless Fan In Return To Minnesota

In a surprise move last week, Kevin Garnett waived his no trade clause to head back to the place he started his career, Minnesota.

It was a dancing heavy set man with “Welcome Home KG” painted on his chest: after seeing this, the usually stoic Garnett laughed and proceeded to salute the fan’s dedication.

After the game, Garnett happily commented on the fan: “When there’s a man dancing with your name on his chest, I think you would pay attention to that… The guy was over the top and I had to give him a big shout out and show him it was all love. But that was probably one of the craziest things y’all seen in 15 years.”

In the end, Minnesota beat the Wizards 99-77.
