Karl-Anthony Towns made a triumphant return to Minnesota as a member of the New York Knicks, leading his new team to a commanding 133-107 victory over the Timberwolves. The crowd welcomed him warmly, celebrating his legacy as the franchise's second all-time scorer.

Despite the cheers for Towns, Knicks head coach Tom Thibodeau faced some jeers from the fans. Towns showcased his skills with an impressive performance, scoring 32 points and grabbing 20 rebounds, solidifying his strong start to the season.
