“If Kat did this they’d call him homophobic slurs”: Fans highlight difference in reception for Timberwolves’ star Karl-Anthony Towns on social media

Fans on social media have highlighted hypocrisy when it comes to how Minnesota Timberwolves star Karl-Anthony Towns received reception after doing certain things.

Oklahoma City Thunder youngster Jaylin Williams recently uploaded a video on the social media platform TikTok after his side’s win against the San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday where he and Jalen Williams were doing the "Muni Long - Made For Me" trend.

Users on the social media platform X — previously known as Twitter — were of the opinion if something similar had been done by Towns, it would’ve been declared ‘homophobic slurs’.

The reaction from the fans on social media arrived after Towns received a reception on social media after his post-match interview video went viral in March 2023 where he changed his voice for the interview.

Towns is having a more than decent season for the Timberwolves where he is averaging 22.7 points, 8.8 rebounds and three assists per game.

In the team’s previous game, Towns ended up scoring 27 points including 10 rebounds and three assists as the Timberwolves defeated the Brooklyn Nets with a score of 96-94.

His best outing this season came in the match against the Charlotte Hornets where he ended up registering a whopping 62 points including eight rebounds and two assists.
