Not only is Kentucky Wildcats star Karl-Anthony Towns in contention to become the No. 1 overall pick in the 2015 NBA Draft, he is proving that he is a quality human being off the court.
On Monday morning, Towns took to Twitter to voice his support for the family of Armoni Sexton.
Sexton, a 2018 recruit from Paterson, N.J., was gunned down in a drive-by shooting. Three others were shot during the drive-by shooting, but they are expected to survive.
The tragic news hit close to home for Towns, who was the Gatorade Player of the Year in New Jersey during his days in high school.
