Karl-Anthony Towns won Coach Cal's UK Celebrity Softball Home Run Derby

Karl-Anthony Towns is an awesome basketball player. The Minnesota Timberwolves franchise player had one of the best rookie of the seasons of the past three decades. He unanimously won the Rookie of the Year award after getting selected as the No. 1 overall pick out of Kentucky. He spent just one year under John Calipari at Kentucky but he credits the program with a lot of his understanding and effectiveness on the basketball court.

So he's happy to help give back to the program he loves so much. This weekend, that happened with the John Calipari Celebrity Softball game.
