The Minnesota Timberwolves star revealed on Friday that he’s lost six family members to the virus since his mother, Jacqueline Cruz-Towns, tragically died while battling Covid-19 in April.
Karl-Anthony said: “I’ve been through a lot, obviously starting out with my mom.
“Last night I got a call that I lost my uncle. I feel like I’ve been hardened a little bit by life and humbled.”
The athlete continued: “I’ve seen a lot of coffins in the last seven months.
“I have a lot of people who have — in my family and my mom’s family — gotten COVID.

“I’m the one looking for answers still, trying to find how to keep them healthy.
“It’s just a lot of responsibility on me to keep my family well-informed and to make all the moves necessary to keep them alive.”
Back in March, he told fans in an Instagram video that his mother was in a medically induced coma and had been placed on a ventilator.
The NBA star’s father also tested positive for the virus, though recovered.
Last month, Karl-Anthony emotionally opened up about the final moments with his mother and the grief he felt over losing her in an 18-minute long YouTube video.

Karl-Anthony explained on Friday that he posted the person video because he “didn’t want people to feel the way I felt,” adding: “I wanted to try to keep them from having the ordeal and the situation I was going through.
“It just came from a place that I didn’t want people to feel as lonely and upset as I was.
“I really made that video just to protect others and keep others well-informed, even though I knew it was going to take the most emotionally out of me that I’ve ever been asked to do.”

Jordyn, 23, and Karl-Anthony went public with their relationship when they shared a photo together on Instagram in September.
The model, who is the former BFF of Kylie Jenner, was shunned by the Kardashians after she kissed Khloe Kardashian’s baby daddy Tristan Thompson.

Back in September, Jordyn opened up on YouTube series Now With Natalie about how the ordeal changed her life and put her “in a very dark place.”
The model continued: “I had my family to talk to, I had you to talk to, but I just felt like I had no one. You take everything you think you know for a whole decade, the people you think you know, the life you think you know, everything that you’ve grown up doing and you take it all away from someone. I didn’t even know how to feel.”
