NEW YORK — Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns was involved in a car accident Thursday in the Twin Cities as he was traveling to the airport in advance of the team's game against the Knicks, coach Ryan Saunders said Friday.
Saunders said Towns was able to take a commercial flight to New York after the accident and was at the team hotel resting. He did not take part in shootaround and is considered questionable for Friday's game.
Saunders said the team did not have information on any specific injuries Towns may have suffered. The team listed him as questionable on the official injury report with "rest" as the reason for his appearance there.
