Garnett buys 1000 tickets to give away to T-Wolves fans
Minnesota Timberwolves fans have been treated to the full KG experience in Kevin Garnett's first week back with the team he started his NBA career with.
The 38-year-old - who spent his first 12 seasons in Minnesota - celebrated his emotionally charged return with a rare T-Wolves win on Wednesday, sat out Friday to rest and was then ejected from Saturday's game after picking up a second technical.
To top it all off, Garnett is giving back to the fans:
