An emotional Karl-Anthony Towns revealed after the match that his team, the Minnesota Timberwolves, played the Los Angeles Clippers, the first to play since January 13, who had very difficult moments after contracting covid-19 and “many scary nights” .
Towns, who played nearly 31 minutes in his first game in nearly a month to score 18 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists, explained after the game against the Clippers that “the covid didn’t treat me well at all. There were many “frightening nights” in which “the vital signs were not good.”
Difficult situation
Several relatives of the Dominican player, including his mother, died of the disease. Cities said that due to a series of conditions and genetic predisposition, as well as the high viral load present in his body, he made his situation “very serious”.
During a meeting with reporters, Towns remembered his mother with tears and admitted that in the most difficult moments he spent alone in his house, “I relied on my faith in Him.”
The Wolves Pivot also referred to people who do not want to use masks to prevent the spread of the disease and reminded that it is a minimal gesture of solidarity, especially when health workers have to wear up to four masks to work.
“People are complaining about wearing a mask. These workers are with people dying and wearing four masks and you can’t use one? Don’t be lazy, think of others, “he said.
Contrary to JE
Cities also referred to the NBA’s decision to celebrate the All-Stars game in the traditional way and said no.
“Personally, I don’t think you have to have an All-Star, but what the hell do I know? What do I know about covid, right? “He said sarcastically.
Town admitted that “I feel very guilty about the treatment I received. It should be available to all Americans and to everyone. I feel guilty about the resources I had and I want to be able to extend those resources to as many people as possible. “
