Karl-Anthony Towns scares Knicks with knee injury - VIDEO
Karl-Anthony Towns gave the New York Knicks a major injury scare during their game against the Los Angeles Clippers after appearing to hurt his right knee.
The star center was seen limping and grabbing his knee following a pair of drives to the basket. According to reporter Steve Popper, Towns struggled to move comfortably and eventually hobbled to the sideline during a timeout, News.Az reports, citing foreign media.
Despite the concerning moment, Towns returned to the court after a short break. However, the concern lingered as he continued to limp at times heading into halftime.
