If you’re wondering what Kevin Garnett is going to do now that he’s retired, turns out sitting on the couch with a bag of Flamin’ Hot Cheetos and watching Judge Judy is not the answer.
He is headed to the TNT studio show, something announced Thursday night during the broadcast.

Garnett also may be consulting with some teams — including the NBA champion Cleveland Cavaliers. So reports Adrian Wojnarowski of The Vertical at Yahoo Sports.
Sources: Beyond joining TNT's studio show, Kevin Garnett still talking w/ teams - including Cavs and Bucks - on 'coaching consultant' role.

It is possible Garnett could accept jobs with more than one team, making periodic stops into town to work with players, league sources say.

There are a lot of teams that could use KG as a consultant, I would expect the Timberwolves are part of that mix as well. He’s going to have the respect and ear of players for teams trying to get a message across to a young squad.
Garnett isn’t doing this for the money, he can pick-and-choose where he feels comfortable and needed.
