Every Sunday, Boston Globe photographer Stan Grossfeld asks the subject of one of his photos to explain what’s happening in the shot.
Up today: Celtics forward Kevin Garnett, giving away food and other items at the Mildred Avenue Community Center in Mattapan as part of teammate Keyon Dooling’s Gametyme Foundation, Feb. 11, 2012.
Garnett: “This is a lot of fun. I used to be a stock boy, so it brings back memories. Even though we had a game last night and we’re running on fumes right now, we won today in the community. We’re here to put a smile on people’s faces. To offer a little bit of your time, effort, and heart to people goes a long way. It’s important to give back, and I’m just happy to be a part of it. We’re players and a lot of people don’t get to see us unless we’re in the venue playing. It’s a great day, man. When I walked in here, I lit up like I was on a playground and I was 5 years old.’’
