A few days before the start of this season in the NBA, the New York Knicks activated a huge “bomb”, acquiring through trade from the Timberwolves him Karl Anthony Towns!
After 9 years in Minnesota, “KAT” was forced to move to the “Big Apple”, putting together a highly competitive team there alongside the Brunson, Bridges and OG Anunoby!
His good friend and longtime teammate at the “wolves” spoke about this sudden and… unexpected trade. Anthony Edwards, who, in the framework of Media Day, emphasized that he was “hurt” by the absence of Towns, but that’s how the league worked.
“It sure hurts that my brother Towns isn’t here. But I know the league works. But we have to move on. I am ready so that we can find a solution as quickly as possible and do even better than last year as much as possible. It’s a little weird talking about it because the exchange just happened. This is my man. We didn’t just experience one or two situations together, but many more. We were like one and played for each other. I will always be happy for him. I’m glad to be here but I’m sad that we’re not together anymore.”
“KAT my brother so that definitely hurt. … It wasn’t like a one or two situation, we both were the one.”
