INDIANAPOLIS – It seemed like Karl-Anthony Towns had something he wanted to get off his chest.
Towns had a reflective and emotional postgame media session following the Timberwolves’ 116-114 loss to the Pacers. It was Towns’ first game back since suffering a knee injury and illness that caused him to miss 15 games.
While he was out, reports surfaced concerning teams monitoring Towns’ level of unhappiness. In his first public comments since the injury, he made a strong statement that reaffirmed his commitment to the Wolves when asked about those reports. Here it is in full, with a curse word edited.
