I never thought a video involving KG and Kenny G would make me tear up
Gotta love Kevin Garnett! What a cool dude! Been slowly picking up his rookie cards since his Hall of Fame announcement...it's interesting how even just a card with his likeness seems to carry a ton of that positive energy he exudes, I can only imagine what he must be like to be around in person.
KG was a complete beast. I loved watching him play with so much passion. Only other team I really watched and rooted for was the Celtics play UNTIL they met up with my Lakers even then it was a joy to see the high skill levels competitions.

A very humble man who accomplished sooo much. Rarely ever see anymore..Good for him.
Jimmy and Garnett should do more! Couldn't stop laughing :D
KGs we love you dudes, coming from a Bulls fan❤I'm a huge fan of them both💕
Great Athlete, Great Musician, and also Great Host. That was a great gesture you did Jimmy. I also love that "Loving You" Music by Kenny G.
it's insane to be able to see KG interviews and get to know him as a person and growing up he was just this superman on the court and i don't even think i saw him as a normal human. so glad his personality is as incredible as his game
I’ve never watched any of his interviews before but it’s so refreshing to see how humble and wholesome Kevin Garnett is. And Kenny G is 🔥 too! ✌🏼
Even though he wasn’t born in Chicago he exhibits all the realness of my city 💪🏾💯

Love both KG’s! I remember back in the early 80’s - late teens, me and my friend (me guitar and him sax) met Kenny G after a great show in Pittsburgh. Before his big hit SongBird - he talked with us for about 10 minutes just about gigs and musician stuff - super nice dude! I hope he continues to play until he’s 100
Damn it Jimmy. Let Kenny G. play!!!
Effing Kenny G ! Grew up listening to his music esp when every store would play his songs non stop wherever you go. Sign !

This guy is super entertaining! I love his view on getting booed.
KG is the reason why i love basketball and aldo a great characther.. GOAT 2 me
That was one heck of a great interview.
KG had some funny shoe commercials. In 99 my friends uncle played in the NBA, and he got our entire middle school basketball team the blue Nike Air Garnett 3s.
Kevin was a great trash talker, and knew how to tell any stories.
Kenny G x KG I didn't know this was the combo I needed
Have always enjoyed watching KG play. Wasn't a particular fan but when he was on the tube, I watched. Congratulations on the BB HOF!

This was truly amazing! So much fun to watch a superstar like KG being so authentic and down to earth.
This was a beautiful surprise Jimmy Kimmel you're awesome for given Kevin Garnett his dream come true. I expected nothing less than Saxiness from my Kenny G. You all made my night KG with the hair love you. True bro love Jimmy this was a good weird thing... Lmbo stay safe. Butterfly 🦋
I knew Kenny G from my dad. He used to play Kenny G Christmas songs every Christmas and from that I started to like his music
Kevin looked so surprised and excited when Kenny G appeared....so real loved it!
Wow great interview, Truly organic. I needed this.

That was awesome. KG looked as happy as Shaq does with a wig 😂
That was so sweet! How cool was that!
I clicked merely on the video because of the screen shot pic lol
I’ll never regret the time have put to watch this interview back2back. Smiled throughout the entire interview
I never realized that KG and KG where soulmates 🤓😂 🎷🏀
KG is so awesome to listen to. He is more infectuous than COVID. That smile makes me smile
