Karl Towns Calls Kevin Garnett His “Mentor”

“He’s my mentor,” said Towns, who spent time with Garnett in Los Angeles last month. “Everything he knows, and countless years he’s been playing this game at a high level, [I am] just trying to garner information from him every day. Learn how to be a better leader, how to be a champion, just to be a true professional.”





This would be a great thing, and probably is a great thing, I just can not help to think of the other side of it.

Demarcus Cousins (who is top 3 trash talkers of all time) told me once that Keving Garnett is the worst talker he has ever heard. Garnett has had his troubles talking on the floor, with Charlie Villaneuva, Joakim Noah, and Carmelo Anthony to name a few.

On the flip side, Kevin Garnett is one of the best NBA players of all time, and will certainly be a first ballot hall of famer!

We as UK fans are like parents, hoping that he only takes some of his friend’s characteristics and not all of them.

All in all, there could not be a better player/teammate for KAT to learn from.
