Hall of Fame Boston Celtics big man Kevin Garnett has the sort of personality that can leave indelible marks on the people he’s played with in the NBA in the same sort of way he leaves similarly indelible marks of a less desirable sort on those he’s played against. The former is the case with fellow Celtics alum Jeff Green — now with the Denver Nuggets — who recently recounted how KG helped him come out of his shell as a player.
“When I was with Boston,” suggested Green via Clutch Points. “I didn’t talk much, I was very quiet. But now, I can’t stop talking, so I guess to a small extent, I’m like (Garnett). I think being vocal is big.”
