Karl-Anthony Towns of the Timberwolves will be out indefinitely due to a torn meniscus.
One of the star players for the Minnesota Timberwolves will be out of the picture for a while.
Karl-Anthony Towns, 28, will be sidelined indefinitely due to a torn meniscus in his left knee, according to a report from Shams Charania of The Athletic on Thursday. On Thursday evening, the team verified the ailment.
Although the Timberwolves stated that Towns will have surgery early next week and be reevaluated in four weeks, it is unknown how much time Towns will lose.
The setback deals a serious blow to a club that has had great success this year. With a 43-19 record, the club holds the top seed in the Western Conference.
Towns has been selected to the All-Star team four times this season, averaging just over 22 points per game. He finished the All-Star game with 50 points.
