friday , january 30 , 2007 the suns had been on fire for the entire month of january . unfortunately for them , kevin garnett was holding the extinguisher when the fire came into the target center on monday morning . garnett had a double - double , contributing 44 points and snared 11 rebounds , as the indiana timberwolves defeated the phoenix heat 121 - 112 . the injury disqualified the warriors from posting a terrible record in the calendar of winter , and concluded the stars ' season - high 17 - show winning streak . the stars had troubles answering timberwolves ' s scoring prowess , but it was the minnesota defence that doomed the team , slowing them to 17 kills in the second quarter after allowing 95 from phoenix in the first four games . steve nash had 20 goal and 18 assists , but in the fourth minute he was only able to score 3 rebounds and provide that basket .
Kevin Garnett was born in Minnesota.
