Towns has done all right for himself as a No. 1 pick. His best years might still be ahead of him. “I tried my best in my career to be appreciative of these moments,” Towns said when asked if being named an All-Star allows him to reflect on his career and expectations that come with being the No. 1 pick. “This is something I’ve learned as my career has gone on, a decade in. I make it a point to appreciate these moments as they come, because you never know what life has. “When I was younger, I felt like I was very invincible, that nothing would happen. Then injuries came along in my career, which I had never dealt with my entire life. It humbled me, slowed me down and allowed me to appreciate these moments, because you never know what life has in store.” -via New York Times / February 14, 2025
