There are several news reports that claim that Towns is the first Latino number 1 pick, but that's not true. Mark Aguirre was part Mexican. [1]Zagalejo^^^ 18:10, 5 July 2015 (UTC)Reply

Not done. Please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to make. Also, weight varies, so it's not like that can really be that accurate anyway. –Deacon Vorbis (carbon • videos) 18:29, 22 March 2020 (UTC)Reply

In April 2020, it was reported by the Timberwolves that his mother died of Coronavirus. That was all over the news and social media, and I was a little surprised to not see it in this article (CNN for reference: https://www.cnn.com/2020/04/13/us/jacqueline-towns-karl-anthony-coronavirus-dies-trnd/index.html). Looks like there were some edits but someone decided it was not notable. Is there any discussion on that point? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.93.87.3 (talk) 22:25, 2 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

The page states that he lost his mother and 6 other family members to Covid, but the source states that, "he said he also is continuing to process the death of his mother, Jacqueline Cruz-Towns, and six other family members who also died of complications from the coronavirus." Should we edit the page to indicate that the source is a statement by him, or do we count him as a reliable source? Poppa shark (talk) 18:46, 14 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
