The 10th edition of ESPN The Magazine’s annual body issue will be released on Monday, June 25.
ESPN released the list of 16 athletes who will be featured, and it includes Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns.
An unconfirmed Canis Hoopus source was able to gather reactions from a few Timberwolves players. Derrick Rose wondered if ESPN needed the entire body or if they could work with just the upper body. Tyus Jones thought his body deserved more credit and attention. Marcus Georges-Hunt was disappointed that his body was never given a chance.
Jimmy Butler claimed ESPN came to him first about being featured in the issue but close friend Mark Wahlberg advised him against it.
