Karl-Anthony Towns Questionable With Illness for Knicks vs. Timberwolves

Overview

• Towns was a late overnight addition to the injury report and is listed as questionable for Wednesday’s matchup with Minnesota.
• The Knicks plan to decide on his status after pregame warmups.
• He has been playing through a confirmed grade-two quadriceps strain suffered in training camp.
• Recent form has trended up, including a 33-point, 13-rebound performance against Washington.
• Frontcourt options remain limited, with Mitchell Robinson facing a minutes restriction when available and Guerschon Yabusele seeing inconsistent minutes; if Towns sits, Landry Shamet or Jordan Clarkson could be elevated and Yabusele could get a longer look.
