Kevin Garnett and Ray Allen had an infamous falling out when Allen left the Boston Celtics for the Miami Heat. While there have been signs of a thaw in the relationship, things still seemed a bit awkward on Sunday night.
Garnett and Allen were both named as part of the NBA’s 75th Anniversary Team, which was honored as part of a ceremony before the All-Star Game on Sunday. That meant both were in attendance, and Allen wound up standing right in front Garnett when a team photo was taken.
TNT cameras captured the moment:
By the looks of things, the relationship might still be a bit frosty. Then again, it was newsworthy when Garnett even acknowledged Allen late last year. These things take time.
There have been hints that Garnett still harbors some animosity toward Allen. If the two are going to make peace, this weekend would be a good opportunity to do it, but it looks unlikely to happen.
