It was Kevin Garnett's final season of his first stint with the Timberwolves as he was traded to the Boston Celtics following the season. He would eventually win a championship with the Celtics in 2008. Garnett returned to Minnesota midway in the 2014-15 season for his second stint. Also following the season, tragedy struck as Eddie Griffin died in an automobile accident on August 17, 2007.
