New York Knicks star Karl-Anthony Towns got a new car from his girlfriend, Jordyn Woods, for his 30th birthday.
This wasn't merely a car; it was a cherished automobile that Woods diligently sought out, following the NBA star's expressed desire to own one.
One might expect Towns to desire a Lamborghini, Rolls-Royce Phantom, or Ferrari, but according to Woods, his ideal vehicle is an older model his mother once drove.
Jacqueline Cruz-Towns, the mother of the town's resident, passed away in April 2020 from COVID-19 complications.
"During the summer Karl asked me if I could drive any car for a day which one would it be. I answered and his response was 'I wouldn’t pick anything crazy, I just really loved my mom’s car she had when I was a kid,'" Woods wrote on Instagram on Sunday, Nov. 16.
"So I went on a mission these past months to find the car, shipped it across the country, got it fixed up and was able to surprise him with it today for his 30th! 🥲❤️," the social media influencer and model added.
Woods shared a series of pictures, one of which featured Towns next to the vehicle he received, complete with a sizable red bow adorning the hood. A separate image depicted Towns as a young child, positioned on the hood of his mother's prior car while she supported his small legs.
She also included a video of Towns driving his replica vehicle.
The Knicks star looked ecstatic as his girlfriend happily panned the camera to him.
"This s--- is so fly, this is the best thing ever. What," he said, with a huge grin on his face.
Woods has been dating the NBA star since 2020.
