Karl-Anthony Towns Addresses Rumor Jimmy Butler Banged His Girlfriend

by HHL JT

Things are not good with the Timberwolves.

Jimmy Butler has officially requested a trade. Karl-Anthony Towns has reportedly told the team he won't sign a rookie scale extension until they get rid of Butler.

So what's going on with what should be one of the most promising young teams in basketball?

According to Twitter speculation, Butler -- who has a history of lusting after his teammate's significant others -- banged KAT's girl

My unified theory of why Butler is asking out:
1. Something happened between Jimmy and KAT in July that caused a bunch of national reporters like Brian Windhorst to start dropping hints that something is up in Minnesota

2. My best guess is that this isn't anything basketball related and is, instead, related to a woman KAT appeared to be dating and posting pictures of on Instagram pic.twitter.com/7KO2DsATFq

3. This person stopped appearing in his feed in July and he's even started scrubbing pics of her. The most recent one being a picture of them in Hawaii.
