Former NBA star Kevin Garnett took to social media to convey his thoughts on the anniversary of his NBA debut with the Timberwolves.

The Nets (0-7) matched the franchise’s worst start in 10 years and are nearly halfway to the worst start in NBA history, an 0-18 skid produced by the 2009-10 New Jersey Nets. Their next chance to end the winless streak comes Wednesday at Indianapolis against the injury-ravaged Pacers (1-6).

The Brooklyn Nets announced prior to Monday's game against the Minnesota Timberwolves that forward Michael Porter Jr. is out for personal reasons.

The Minnesota Timberwolves were urged to trade for a disgruntled star point guard amid a one-game suspension with his current team.

Julius Randle had 19 points, 11 rebounds and 10 assists in his 15th career triple-double, and the Minnesota Timberwolves beat the winless Brooklyn Nets 125-109 on Monday night.

For a moment, the game looked like it might get away from Brooklyn. The Timberwolves opened the third quarter on a 13-5 run and built a 12-point lead with 9:08 left in the period, but coming off a 24-point loss to Philadelphia the night before, the Nets punched back.
