New York Knicks All-Star center Karl-Anthony Towns denied Tuesday that he was treated for knee and finger injuries during the offseason, according to Fred Katz of The Athletic. ESPN's Ramona Shelburne reported in June that Towns underwent "treatment on his bruised left knee and to repair ligament damage on his left finger." Shelburne added that Towns suffered both injuries during the Knicks' playoff run. He reportedly injured his finger in Game 3 of New York's second-round playoff series against the Boston Celtics and his knee during the Eastern Conference Finals against the Indiana Pacers. The Knicks very much look like the team to beat in the Eastern Conference in 2025-26 along with the Cleveland Cavaliers.
