According to another report, Taylor has already received bids for the franchise.
While Garnett has serious bad blood with Taylor, the Timberwolves icon has said in the past that he would love to be part of an ownership group that replaces Taylor. It appears he’s ready to put his money where his mouth is and potentially return to the franchise where he became an NBA superstar.
