KG, Towns on regional cover of Sports Illustrated

Kevin Garnett might not have a lot left in his tank as a player, but this week's Sports Illustrated cover with Karl-Anthony Towns offers a reminder of the clout he still wields.

Kevin Garnett might not have a lot left in his tank as a player, but this week's Sports Illustrated offers a reminder of the clout he still wields.

Garnett and No. 1 overall pick Karl-Anthony Towns — perhaps the next Garnett, as they share the power forward position — appear together on one of four regional covers of Sports Illustrated that hit newsstands today.

It's the fourth time KG has been on the SI cover, and the Wolves were kind enough to send over an image of all four covers together. Here they are, in all their glory (click to enlarge). If those photos aren't enough, here's SI's inside look at the photo shoot.
