New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns appeared to suffer a left hand injury during his team’s Game 3 loss to the Boston Celtics. Towns was injured while going for a rebound during the third quarter of Game 3. He was able to stay in the game, but was spotted grabbing and shaking his left hand repeatedly.
Some believe that Towns was spotted on the broadcast saying “I broke it” while referring to his hand. Postgame, the Knicks All-Star center deflected questions about his injured left hand.
“It is what it is,” Towns said. “I’m gonna keep finding ways to play, so I ain’t tripping.”
When asked if he underwent x-rays for the injury, Towns said that he would let the Knicks handle that communication.
“I’ma let them tell you that,” Towns said when asked about his left hand being examined or x-rayed.
