Karl-Anthony Towns on Knicks offseason, Wolves & NBA journey, Dominican pride

Fat Joe and Jadakiss are joined by New York Knicks superstar Karl-Anthony Towns. Joe and Jada ask the five-time NBA All-Star about the New York Knicks offseason, their run going through the Detroit Pistons and Boston Celtics to make the Eastern Conference Finals in the last year's NBA playoffs, the gut punch that came with losing to Tyrese Haliburton's Indiana Pacers, and how New York is looking going into this season with Mike Brown taking over for head coach Tom Thibodeau. They also discuss KAT's early years being mentored by Kevin Garnett on the Minnesota Timberwolves. KAT's legendary University of Kentucky college basketball squad, and why KAT is more motivated by gaining the respect of New York than money at this point in his NBA career. 5:00 - 38-1 Kentucky team 10:00 - Getting drafted No. 1 to Minnesota 15:30 - Rookie season & KG as a mentor 17:00 - Joe tries to compliment Guerschon Yabusele 21:30 - Mike Brown taking over for Thibs 24:45 - East is wide open w/ Tatum & Haliburton out 27:00 - Jadakiss calls out the refs for KAT 34:30 - His reaction to being traded to the Knicks 36:00 - KAT's girlfriend Jordyn Woods' fashion line 38:15 - Best big man three-point shooter ever? 42:00 - KAT credits his dad for his basketball gifts 47:00 - Avenging last year's loss to Pacers in ECF 49:30 - MSG & why there's nowhere like New York 51:30 - Love for Dominican Republic 56:00 - Joe's been KAT's biggest defender in NYC barber shops [Timestamps may vary due to advertisements.] All lines provided by hardrock.betSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
