Timberwolves center Karl Anthony Towns revealed on social media on Thursday that he was hit by a drunk driver and was hospitalized before the start of the 2020-21 NBA season.
TMZ showed a screenshot from Towns's Q&A session on his Instagram story where he thanked his girlfriend Jordyn Woods for helping him through hard times and addressed the accident.
"My woman has held me down more than the world knows," Towns said. "From my mother and family members dying (1 on her bday in Cabo), getting hit by a drunk driver (was 2pm in the afternoon FYI) in LA this off-season and staying with me in the hospital for the night and helping me in rehab.
