Boston coach Doc Rivers said that Kevin Garnett's surgically-repaired right knee is "100 percent healthy, but his game is just not there yet. It's coming.

"He's got a lot of things that are there. His jump shot is back for sure. His timing is still off a little bit. One day his quickness is there and the next day it's not, and that's typical with injuries. It takes a while. We are in no hurry with it. We've kept his minutes down. It's been good."

Garnett is averaging 13.5 points and 7.3 rebounds per game this season.
