If hope heals, then Kevin Garnett is on the fast track to recovery, thanks to Celtics head coach Doc Rivers.
Rivers told WEEI on Thursday morning that he had no new information on the Big Ticket’s leg injury and won’t know until KG undergoes an MRI on Thursday afternoon.
“I think we’re in good shape here, but you just never know,” Rivers told the radio station. “I’m just going to wait for the MRI.”
Garnett has been hindered by a knee injury in recent years, but Rivers is optimistic that the latest impairment has nothing to do with his All-Star forward’s knee.
“We do think it’s muscle related. We don’t think it has anything to do with the knee, but we don’t know,” Rivers said. “So we’re just going to wait and see.”
