    Karl-Anthony Towns Part 1

    NBA superstar Karl-Anthony Towns sits down with Shannon Sharpe at Club Shay Shay for an extensive and candid conversation. Karl-Anthony, also known as KAT, starts off by discussing his offseason activities and his claim to be the greatest shooting big man of all time, stating that he’s an even better shooter than Dirk Nowitzki or any other big man in NBA history. He dives into why he didn’t showcase his shooting abilities while playing at Kentucky under Coach John Calipari and talks about how both his and Anthony Davis’ games evolved after making it to the NBA. KAT also touches on the balance between team play at Kentucky and individual NBA aspirations. KAT then reflects on Kentucky’s legendary 38-1 season, expressing the sting of their lone loss. He also delves into the Minnesota Timberwolves’ performance last season, offering an analysis of why they were eliminated by the Dallas Mavericks and how the team discovered its strengths by relying on veteran leadership and holding each other accountable. Shannon Sharpe presses KAT on his shooting struggles during that series, asking why he didn’t change his scoring strategy. Then, KAT shares his detailed daily routine to keep himself in peak physical and mental condition as a basketball player. Karl-Anthony addresses criticisms about his work ethic, specifically responding to comments made by Shaquille O'Neal, Charles Barkley, and Draymond Green, who have all questioned his practice regimen. KAT sets the record straight and also discusses his long-standing relationship with Kyrie Irving, tracing their bond back to their early days in New Jersey. He explains how he’s learned from Kyrie over the course of their NBA careers. KAT praises the skill and dominance of the Boston Celtics last season and explains how their championship was a long time coming. KAT spends time talking about his Minnesota Timberwolves teammate Anthony Edwards, highlighting what makes Edwards special as a player and how their connection on the court is so strong. He explains why Anthony Edwards listens to him more than other people and discusses Edwards and other NBA stars' decision not to participate in the NBA Dunk Contest, sharing insights into why stars are now steering away from the event in favor of focusing on the three-point contest. When it comes to Rudy Gobert, Karl-Anthony gives an honest assessment of what Gobert brings to the Timberwolves and where he falls short. He also dives into Gobert’s rivalry with Draymond Green and reflects on his time playing under Coach Tom Thibodeau, detailing the ups and downs of his coaching philosophy. KAT gets into the infamous rift between him and Jimmy Butler, explaining how the experience helped him grow as both a teammate and a leader. #Volume

He elaborates on his mindset when facing off against top-tier NBA talent like Nikola Jokic and other elite players in the league, and discusses his friendly rivalry with Anthony Davis, reflecting on the similar paths their basketball careers have taken. Shannon and KAT go deeper into NBA history as KAT shares his Mount Rushmore of NBA big men, naming his picks for the best power forwards and centers of all time. He talks about the dominance of players like Hakeem Olajuwon, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, and Wilt Chamberlain and wonders if anyone will ever be able to match Wilt’s historic 100-point game. KAT also reflects on watching Steph Curry dominate during the Olympics and suggests he might be able to beat Curry in a three-point contest, but goes on to call Steph the best shooter who’s ever lived. On a personal note, Karl-Anthony opens up about his relationship with Jordyn Woods, sharing how they transitioned from friends to partners and the challenges they face as a high-profile couple in the public eye.

He expresses how crucial Jordyn has been in helping him navigate that grief and staying grounded. KAT also talks about his financial strategy, revealing that he takes business inspiration from notable figures like Magic Johnson, 50 Cent, Alex Rodriguez, and Floyd Mayweather. He reminisces about the first thing he splurged on after being drafted into the NBA and gives his Mount Rushmore of basketball players from New Jersey. Shannon asks KAT whether he grew up a Knicks fan or a Nets fan, and while he rooted for both teams for different reasons, he favored the Knicks more. KAT goes on to share stories about growing up tall, playing soccer as a kid, and improving his coordination through sports. The episode wraps up with KAT reflecting on his decision to go to Kentucky, why he chose the Wildcats over other schools like Rutgers and NC State, and his thoughts on the all-time best Kentucky, Duke, and North Carolina teams. He also weighs in on the Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake beef and picks his all-time Kentucky starting five.
