Karl-Anthony Towns Feels Guilty for Receiving COVID-19 Treatment During 'Scary' Battle

Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns returned to the court on Wednesday night after missing nearly a month following his COVID-19 diagnosis, saying he experienced several "scary nights" while he was sick.

"I am a high-risk case," Towns said, per ESPN. "COVID did not treat me well whatsoever. A lot of scary nights. One of the things that I told my sister when I got COVID was that 'Hey, I got it, and I don't got a good version of it. I got a lot of COVID in me, but I am going to fight and beat it.
