Jordyn Woods supports boyfriend after his game absence
Karl-Anthony Towns missed the Knicks' game against the Warriors due to personal reasons, marking his sixth absence this season. Coach Tom Thibodeau confirmed Towns is not injured but did not provide details on his return. Jordyn Woods, Towns' girlfriend, tweeted “F–k cancer” after the game, though it is unclear if her message relates to his absence. Woods lost her father to cancer in 2017 and received support from fans, including actor Ben Stiller. The Knicks have a 3-3 record in games without Towns, who averages 24.5 points and 13.4 rebounds this season. The team is currently third in the Eastern Conference with a 40-20 record.
