Kevin Garnett – 1995 NBA Draft, 5th Pick, Minnesota Timberwolves
Tonight (November 21, 2008), Kevin Garnett will play against the Timberwolves at the Target Center for the first time in his career. He returns to Minnesota as a champion, as a defensive player of the year, and as a celebrated and cherished sports figure in Minnesota. An icon. To commemorate the occasion, here is a look back on June 28th, 1995, the day Kevin Garnett became a Minnesota Timberwolf. The Minnesota Timberwolves made Kevin Garnett their first round draft choice — 5th pick overall — in the 1995 NBA Draft at the SkyDome in Toronto. Garnett became the first player in 20 years to jump from high school straight to the NBA. He would face a blitz of criticisms and doubters, people predicting that he would fail miserably. How wrong they were.

KG and Craig Sager….that was the start of fun relationship. lol
@Soulteam15 Understand? triple means when u he in 3 caregories and double means “2 numbers” 1?
25.2 ppg 6.7 asst for a PF 17.9 rebs and 6.5BLOCKS PER GAME! thats crazy.
Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Clippers, Philedelphia 76r’s and Washington Bullets all got owned.
@harris224
KG is the only PF to have 20000 points 10000 boards and 5000 assists he might have gotten it thtrough points rebounds and assists like most players
I like that Wolves Hat
Best PF indeed, almost a shame how loyal he was!
@Listenism lol so true
If only those other teams knew that Kevin Garnett would become the greatest power forward of all tine
Not smart enough to go to college…
@ahyuandy I’m guessing his was points, rebounds and blocks. He probably just blocked everyone’s shots, got the rebound and then dribbled up the court and dunked.
if any of these teams could look at the progress he has made over the years they would have picked him number 1 no doubt
@garnetttribute and turnovers lol u forgot that 1
Kevin Garnett is garbage man. A triple double in a quarter I can get a triple double after 79 games in the NBA
Liked him as a T-Wolf, hate him as Celtic. Ever since he won the camp in 08, he’s been a asshole!!!
smith????????????????????????

@Quincy00700 thats all fine and good man, but get it straight a triple double is 10 or more in three statistical categories, not just with 30 pts and then 10 of anything else!
Smith 1st loooooooooooool!
@cboule1 bt iLike da excitement of a good game and of sum dude gettin dat much points wit ah triple double nikga..
@Quincy00700 no you idiot, you only need 10 points for a triple double, not 30 u fucking retard
Damn he was so young!
Joe Smith is the 1st pick LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLO
@Soulteam15 a triple double is 30points 10reb 10ast or blk
@garnetttribute wow i must say that was a perfect fucking answer
