Karl-Anthony Towns' Blunt Statement After Knicks-Bulls

The New York Knicks fell to the Chicago Bulls at home on Wednesday night by final score of 124-123. Star center Karl-Anthony Towns lead all scorers with 46 points, adding 10 rebounds, three assists, and three steals in the one-point loss.
New York trailed by as many as 22 points in this game, and nearly completed a very impressive comeback. The Bulls had five players score in double figures, including star guard Zach LaVine who finished with 31 points, eight assists, and seven rebounds.
Speaking after the game, Towns made a blunt statement, downplaying his individual performance in what was ultimately a loss.
“We win together, we lose together,” Towns said, adding he doesn’t care about his stats in a loss.

Also said he doesn’t care about his stats if it doesn’t come with a W.
Towns was acquired by New York this offseason in a trade with the Minnesota Timberwolves. The deal came out of nowhere, as Minnesota just made the Western Conference Finals last season.
Both the Timberwolves and Knicks have started slow to begin the season. Currently 5-6 through 11 games, New York fell below .500 with its loss to Chicago, while the Timberwolves are an even .500 at 6-6.

It is still very early in the season, and there projected to be an adjustment for both New York and Minnesota. That said, the individual performance of Towns has been a major bright spot for the Knicks.
