Garnett was scheduled to be an unrestricted free agent on July 1.
The 36-year-old Garnett played in 60 games for Boston last season, averaging 15.8 points and 8.2 rebounds per game.
Reports surfaced earlier this month that Garnett was strongly considering retirement after the Celtics were eliminated from this year’s playoffs by the eventual champion Miami Heat in the Eastern Conference final.
The Mauldin, S.C. native has played in Boston for the past five seasons, winning a NBA Championship with the team in 2008.
