One of the most haunting segments of Karl-Anthony’s video post making the announcement came when he spoke about the conversation he had with her as she was going in. “Every day I always told her how much I love her,” he said. “She was telling me things I didn’t want to hear. I dismissed some things she was saying because it was something I didn’t want to hear.” The NBA has thrown its collective arms around the Towns family in the hours since Jackie’s death was made public. So many players and coaches had met and interacted with a woman who simply could not be ignored as soon as she stepped into the arena.
