During today’s Hall of Fame press conference, 2020 NBA Hall of Fame inductee Kevin Garnett was asked about winning the 2008 NBA championship with Boston. The Celtic legend showered Boston with praise, from the fans to the franchise itself.
Garnett also touched on his only regret about his time in green: That he didn’t get to Boston sooner.
In his own words, here is what winning as a Celtic meant to the Hall of Fame power forward:
“Getting with a storied franchise like Boston gave me light.”
