Celtics forward Kevin Garnett out against Charlotte with strained left thigh muscle
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Boston Celtics forward Kevin Garnett will miss Saturday night's game against Charlotte with a strained left thigh muscle.
Celtics coach Doc Rivers told reporters before the game that the 17-year veteran didn't look good in practice on Friday, so the team decided to sit him.
Jeff Green was expected to start in his place.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Garnett has played 63 of the team's 64 games this season, only missing a win in Phoenix when he was rested after attending the All-Star game.
