How Kevin Garnett Almost Missed Out on $126 Million Contract


Recommended Posts

 
“In 1997, Garnett, then just 21, negotiated a massive six-year, $126 million contract extension that many believe helped cause the ensuing lockout. It was life-changing money. And yet, his agent couldn’t find him to actually finalize the deal because he was demoing a new Janet Jackson album. "We’re listening to Janet’s album," Garnett said. Jam was previewing a copy of Janet Jackson’s The Velvet Rope for Garnett. "Could we do it a little later?" he asked Fleisher. (Boys Among Men, a book by Jonathan Abrams; Photo: Twitter)
