Kevin Garnett, the best player in Minnesota Timberwolves history, is
expected to announce his retirement soon after reaching a buyout agreement with
the club, multiple sources have confirmed.
多家媒体已经证实，明尼苏达森林狼队历史上最好的球员凯文·加内特在和俱乐部达成买断协议之后不久可能就会宣布退役。
Garnett led the down-trodden Timberwolves to eight consecutive playoff
appearances, starting in1997, after becoming the first player in 20 years to
jump from high school to the NBA.
自1997年起，加内特带领受压制的森林狼队连续八次在季后赛亮相，成为20年内高中毕业后直接进入NBA的球员。
Garnett, who waived his no-trade clause in order to reunite with the
Timberwolves in February 2015, will not play out the second year of his
two-year, $16.5-million contract.
为了和森林狼队重聚，加内特在2015年2月放弃了拒绝交易条款，他的合同是两年期，价值1650万美元，但是他将不会在第二年出赛。
He was selected the NBA’s most valuable player in 2004 after leading the
Timberwolves to the Western Conference finals. He later teamed with Paul Pierce
and Ray Allen to revive the Boston Celtics as an Eastern Conference power,
winning an NBA title in 2008 over the Los Angeles Lakers.
在2004年，他带领森林狼队挺进西部联盟决赛，后被评为NBA最有价值球员。后来他和保罗·皮尔斯以及雷·阿伦作为波士顿凯尔特人队的一员，使球队在东部联盟起死回生，战胜洛杉矶湖人队成为2008年NBA冠军。
Garnett, 40, leaves Minnesota having played 970 of his 1,462 NBA games
there. During his 21-year career, he scored 19,201 of his 26,071 points and took
down 10,718 of his 14,662 rebounds for Minnesota.
今年已经40岁的加内特在NBA一共打了1462场比赛，其中在森林狼队就有970场。在21年的职业生涯里，他一共得了26071分，其中19201分在森林狼队;14662个篮板球，其中10718个在森林狼队。

& off the court, a role model, & one of the most influential players to
ever play the game.”
“谢谢你，KG(加内特名字缩写)。”加内特长期所在的ASM
体育经纪公司发推说，“你带给我们赛场内外的爱，是我们的模范，也是最有影响力的球员之一。”
Garnett, who could have become the first player in NBA history to play in
22 seasons, is one of five players to play at least 50,000 minutes.
加内特可能是NBA历史上第一位打了22个赛季的球员，是参加至少五万分钟比赛的五名球员之一。 |
