Kevin Garnett Already Knows Where LeBron Should Sign... And It Ain’t Philly

Kevin Garnett is officially on correspondent duty for the most cracking Summer League he can remember. KG runs through the rookie class he’s been waiting on: Darryn Peterson 25-and-12 statement, Kareem Lopez making history as the first Mexican-born first-round pick, and the Boozer-Lopez frontcourt that could flip Memphis.

Then it gets real. KG keeps it a buck on the Jaylen Brown trade (“I wanted JB to retire a Celtic”), why it feels like KD leaving Golden State all over again, why he’s heated for New York losing Mitchell Robinson, where LeBron should actually sign now that the Lakers chapter is closed, and why Ja Morant in Portland might be exactly the fresh air he needs.
