Karl-Anthony Towns sits out at Brooklyn after hard fall

NEW YORK – After a scary fall toward the end of Wednesday's loss to the Wizards, Karl-Anthony Towns said he was feeling better than he would have thought after that game.

But he also cautioned he might not be available to play in Friday's game against Brooklyn.

Towns was a game-time decision entering the night and ended up sitting out because of the tailbone/back injury he suffered when he appeared to lose his grip on the rim in the fourth quarter Wednesday.

Towns participated in Friday's shootaround with coach Chris Finch saying it was going to be Towns' call whether or not he played.
