It's a sight that has become all too familiar but is still equally jarring for Timberwolves fans anytime it happens — Karl-Anthony Towns hitting the floor hard and coming up holding his wrist, specifically his left wrist.
It happened again during the first quarter of the Wolves' 112-103 loss to Oklahoma City on Monday night at Target Center. Towns took a hard foul and fall to the floor. He got up favoring the wrist. He stayed in the game, but even then it's not always a clear sign that Towns has escaped harm.
He played on the injured wrist a bit last season before shutting it down in February.
