Garnett out Sunday, misses another chance to play Duncan

Kevin Garnett will miss his fourth straight game for the Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday with a sore knee.

While rest for the ailing left knee has been one of the reasons for sitting the 38-year-old Garnett the past three games, it appears the issue may be more serious.

The other downside to missing Sunday's game is another opportunity lost to see Garnett face off against Tim Duncan - possibly for the final time. If this sounds familiar, it's because Garnett also sat out the Brooklyn Nets' meeting against the Spurs when he was still with them in December.

The two power forwards defined their position throughout the late 1990s and early 2000s. If you want to see them on the same court again, let's hope Garnett gets that two-year contract extension and Duncan doesn't hang them up this offseason.
