12. Minnesota Timberwolves: Kevin Garnett, 139.8 Win Shares

For the first 12 years of his NBA career, Kevin Garnett perused the wilderness of Minnesota, lurking as a lone wolf, leading the T-Wolves in Win Shares in 11 of those 12 seasons. Garnett finished 10th on the NBA’s all-time career Win Shares list.

KG returned to Minnesota for his NBA swan song in 2015, but a new pup had arrived. Karl-Anthony Towns has led the T-Wolves in Win Shares each of the last seven seasons. KAT is already second on the T-Wolves’ all-time list. Of the surprising variety: Gorgui Dieng is sixth and Nikola Pekovic is 11th. (The T-Wolves have been around for only 34 seasons.)
