Kevin Garnett (knee) will not play Monday against the Pelicans

Garnett (knee) will not play Monday against the Pelicans, Darren Wolfson of 1500 ESPN in Minneapolis reports.

Analysis:

As was the case for much of the second half of last season, Garnett is essentially questionable on a game-to-game basis, and Monday will mark the 39-year-old's eighth consecutive absence. With the All-Star break approaching, it seems unlikely that Garnett will be available Wednesday against Toronto.
