Minnesota Timberwolves big man Karl-Anthony Towns and his longtime girlfriend, Jordyn Woods, have both had very big summers.
In Towns’ case, Minnesota went out and acquired Rudy Gobert to pair with the team’s existing young core of him, Anthony Edwards and D’Angelo Russell.
While the move may not turn the Wolves into an immediate title contender, it does put them in position to improve on last year’s finish.
As for Woods, she has continued to build a brand for herself as one of the most prominent social media influencers in the game.
This week, photos emerged of Woods’ new look after reportedly dropping more than 30 pounds, per BSO.
The photos displaying Woods’ weight loss largely speak for themselves:

Big picture, Towns and Woods have slowly morphed into one of the biggest couples in the entire NBA.
Between their extremely provocative Paris photos, very expensive gifts to each other and especially public PDA – the two love birds are always in the news for something.
For a brief fleeting moment there it seemed like cheating rumors might derail Woods and Towns, but they never did. Instead, they powered through and emerged on the other side stronger than ever before.
This will be one of the biggest and most defining seasons of Towns’ pro career. The Wolves have all the pieces necessary to be a legitimate force in the Western Conference.
There have been conversations about them possibly being involved in another blockbuster trade, but even if that fails to materialize, Minnesota boasts enough talent on paper to do real work.

A lot of that hinges on Towns’ ability to play a superstar level, though. And Woods’ support will be key in keeping Towns mentally ready.
If the Wolves surprise some folks and make some playoff strides in 2022-23, don’t be shocked when Towns and Woods turn into the NBA’s biggest power couple.
