Karl-Anthony Towns isn’t just a household name on the NBA court, he also has a special love for video games. And when it comes to Assassin’s Creed, his love for the franchise runs deeper than a Steph Curry 3-pointer.
So, when he got an exclusive sneak peek at Ubisoft’s upcoming Assassin’s Creed Shadows during NBA All-Star Weekend, it was no surprise that he was locked in. But what really caught fans’ attention? His girlfriend, Jordyn Woods, dropping a two-word reaction that summed it all up.
Girlfriend Jordyn Woods Reacts to KAT’s Gaming Grind
Who doesn’t know about Ubisoft, the $1.6 billion gaming powerhouse behind the sensational Assassin’s Creed? Well, Ubisoft hosted a private event during NBA All-Star Weekend. NBA stars like Karl-Anthony Towns, Jaren Jackson Jr., and Cameron Johnson got an early hands-on experience with Assassin’s Creed Shadows, the highly anticipated next entry in the franchise.
KAT, never one to hide his gaming passion, posted a picture of himself completely locked in while playing. Fans quickly noticed that Jordyn Woods slid into the comments section with a simple but fitting reaction: “Very focused.”
And honestly? She wasn’t wrong. Towns looked like he was deep in the zone, proving once again that his love for gaming is just as real as his love for basketball.
KAT and Video Games: A Story of Passion and Pizza
This isn’t just some casual gaming session for Karl-Anthony Towns. His love for video games goes back to his childhood days in New Jersey, and his long-time “best friend” turned girlfriend Jordyn Woods knows that.
“Didn’t have much money, and I remember back in the day, there was such a thing as an arcade. There were a lot of arcades, but for me, the arcade was Pizza Hut,” as KAT told his story back in 2018 during a major game reveal event.

Talking about Ubisoft, Karl has been rocking with Assassin’s Creed for years. Back in March 2022, he even took to X (formerly Twitter) to hype up Assassin’s Creed Valhalla: Dawn of Ragnarok, posting: “Streamed the new Assassin’s Creed Valhalla Dawn of Ragnarok yesterday. Let’s just say I had a good time lol.. Go check it out now!”
For a guy who’s dominating the NBA, finding time for gaming isn’t easy. But for Karl-Anthony Towns, it’s all about the deep passion he has for gaming. And with Ubisoft continuing to roll out massive games like Assassin’s Creed Shadows, it’s clear why he’s staying locked in with the franchise.
As a true assassin on the court for the New York Knicks, Karl-Anthony Towns is all about precision, strategy, and locking in. And with Assassin’s Creed Shadows dropping soon, don’t be surprised if he’s back on the sticks, streaming the game, and diving into historical open worlds.
And as for Jordyn Woods? She’ll probably be there, dropping another simple but spot-on reaction. “Very focused,” indeed.
