Karl-Anthony Towns was dealing with something off of the court as he missed the Knicks’ 114-102 loss to the Warriors on Tuesday.

The 7-foot center for the Knicks missed his sixth game of the season due to personal reasons, according to Knicks coach Tom Thibodeau. It was clarified that the absence was not related to a significant injury.

Towns’ girlfriend, Jordyn Woods, shared a message about cancer later that night.

“F–k cancer,” Woods wrote on X.

The 27-year-old model did not elaborate further and it’s unclear if her message was related to Towns’ absence.

The player, who has faced personal challenges such as the loss of his father to cancer in 2017, received widespread support from Knicks fans, including actor Ben Stiller, who is known for his dedication to the New York team.

“Agree,” Stiller wrote, adding a bunch of orange and blue heart emojis.

The Knicks have gone 3-3 in the games Towns has missed in his first campaign with New York.

Towns is averaging 24.5 points and 13.4 rebounds this season.

Thibodeau declined to answer if Towns would be available when the Knicks start their five-game West Coast trip Thursday against the Lakers.

Coach Thibodeau expressed uncertainty about the player’s return timeline, stating he couldn’t provide a specific answer as he was unsure himself. He emphasized the player’s need for time and support, highlighting that the team looks forward to his comeback once he is ready.

The Knicks will likely lean on Mitchell Robinson, who was on a minutes restriction against the Warriors as he is eased back from an ankle injury suffered in May.

Robinson finished with seven points and five rebounds in 15 minutes.

Towns finished with 19 points and 16 rebounds in the Knicks’ 116-112 overtime win against the Heat on Sunday.

The Knicks are in third place in the Eastern Conference with a 40-20 mark.
