Karl-Anthony Towns has been facing a lot of criticism since the Knicks' ECF loss. However, Lou Williams had to step in to defend the big man.

After coming up short in the Eastern Conference Finals, Karl-Anthony Towns was subjected to a brutal report regarding his Knicks teammates.

According to reports from James L. Edwards III and Fred Katz of The Athletic, there was growing frustration within the Knicks locker room regarding Towns' defensive play. Both players and coaches reportedly felt he was missing assignments and misreading coverages without offering any clear reasoning behind the lapses.
