Kevin Garnett joins Turner Sports as analyst for NBA on TNT
It didn't take long for Kevin Garnett to begin the next chapter of his basketball career.
Garnett, a future first-ballot Hall of Famer who retired from the NBA in September after 21 seasons, will join the Turner Sports family as part of the NBA on TNT crew with Charles Barkley, Shaquille O'Neal, Kenny "The Jet" Smith and Ernie Johnson.
According to Turner, Garnett signed a multi-year agreement and will appear weekly throughout the season "providing raw insight and commentary from a custom standalone set," starting next Thursday.
"KG's incredible passion for the game brings a new unfiltered narrative to our coverage,” said Craig Barry, executive vice president and chief content officer for Turner Sports. “This raw innovative approach will speak directly to the fans across multiple platforms."
Yeah, we have a feeling he'll fit right in.
