Jordyn Woods was living the high life in Paris when the bombshell NBA news about her boyfriend, Karl-Anthony Towns, dropped. A continent away, Woods was hit with the stunning announcement that the Minnesota Timberwolves had traded Towns to the New York Knicks. Now, nearly a week later, the shock of the trade is starting to fade, and Woods took to Instagram to share her thoughts and express her support for Towns as he transitions to his new team.
In her Instagram Stories, the 27-year-old model and social media star admitted that the news was hard to process at first, but she’s beginning to come to terms with it.
She also posted a heartfelt message alongside an emotional clip of Towns’ farewell to Minnesota, where he spent his entire NBA career up until now.
“I am so proud of him,” Woods wrote, sharing part of Towns’ teary goodbye message to the Timberwolves organization and its fans. “This is still so hard to process, being that I’ll miss my @timberwolves family so much, but I know God has us, and this is the beginning of something great,” she added, including a fingers-crossed and heart emoji to symbolize hope for their future in New York.

Woods, who has been a vocal supporter of Towns throughout their relationship, then reposted a series of photos and messages from friends and family, who either wished the couple well on their new journey or bid them farewell from Minnesota. One of her final posts summed up her mixed emotions, as she captioned it, “When the shock starts wearing off and you’re finally starting to accept you’re about to be a New Yorker.”
As she embraces her new reality, Woods has already started to settle into the New York vibe. She shared a selfie wearing a New York Knicks hoodie, symbolizing her readiness to support her boyfriend as he dons the Knicks jersey. She also posted a similar look on TikTok, where she’s equally active with her 1.6 million followers.
Woods, who has become a fixture in the public eye since her early days on reality TV, seems poised to thrive in New York’s spotlight. With over 12 million followers on Instagram and a growing platform on TikTok, her influence and fashion-forward style are a natural fit for the Big Apple.
As the Knicks welcome Towns into their fold, Woods appears ready to embrace the next chapter of their lives with the same energy and grace that have made her a social media sensation.
For now, Woods is balancing her bittersweet farewell to Minnesota with excitement for what’s ahead in New York. The transition may have come as a surprise, but with Woods by his side, Towns is sure to find support both on and off the court in the city that never sleeps.
