With the news of Mason Plumlee feeling that he deserves to start for Brooklyn, the question for the Nets is. Will KG come back? Well in an interview with Bleacher Report, Lionel Hollins gave word that he probably will.
B/R: Staying in the frontcourt, what’s the latest with Kevin Garnett? Has he talked to you yet about returning?
LH: No, I haven’t talked about that with him, but all reports that I have [from team management] is that he’s coming back. It’s his right to make that decision or change his mind if he has decided to come back or not come back. I’m not worried about that. That’s out of my control. That’s a decision that KG and his family have to make, and I’ll leave it with him.
If KG does come back. That’ll be 20 seasons. 2 decades of playing in the NBA. That’s a milestone to be proud of. But even if he does come back. Will Hollins start him over Plumlee. I mentioned in a previous post that Plumlee doesn’t really fit in today’s “Stretch 4” like KG does. That’s something for Hollins to think about.
