Minnesota announced on the 8th (Korean time), “As a result of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) test, Towns was diagnosed with a ruptured lateral meniscus in his left knee.
He will undergo surgery early next week and be diagnosed again in four weeks.”
Towns is averaging 22.1 points, 8.4 rebounds, and 3 assists in the regular league this season.
He is a franchise star who was selected by Minnesota with the first overall pick in the 2015 rookie draft.
Even if the knee condition improves somewhat in early April, it is expected that a return to the playoffs will be possible in mid-April at the earliest.
Minnesota Timberwolves is in first place in the Western Conference with 44 wins and 19 losses this season, but there are 2nd place Oklahoma City Thunder (43 wins 19 losses), 3rd place Denver Nuggets (43 wins 20 losses), and 4th place LA Clippers (40 wins 21 losses).
Towns’ departure is painful as they are following closely.
