Scratch that "for sure" bit about Kevin Garnett playing tonight in Oklahoma City.

He's out, as is starting center Nikola Pekovic.

The Wolves are citing Garnett's sore knee. Pekovic said before the game the pain in his ankle is still "bad" after he played just eight minutes Wednesday in Phoenix.

Adrien Payne will start at power forward and Gorgui Dieng at center in their places.
