As the New York Knicks’ season kicks off with all the ups and downs one might expect from a roller coaster, Karl-Anthony Towns seems to be warming up at a leisurely pace. Despite being a decade-deep NBA veteran, Towns’ recent stats, averaging a humble 16.5 points, 11 rebounds, and 1.5 assists, are hardly making jaws drop around Madison Square Garden. But if Towns isn’t grabbing headlines, his girlfriend Jordyn Woods certainly is – and she’s doing it with a style statement that’s lighting up social media faster than a three-point shot at crunch time.
It was an unmissable courtside moment on Saturday when Woods turned the Knicks game into her own runway. With a chic Knicks jacket layered over a white tank top, a daring high-slit denim skirt, and those attention-grabbing Jimmy Choo Crystal Boots, she practically shut down the internet. Woods’ look was so on point that even fashion-forward athletes couldn’t resist joining the fan frenzy. WNBA star Angel Reese was quick to declare her approval, dropping a “COOKED” on Instagram, punctuated by heart-eyed emojis. Gymnastics legend Sunisa Lee couldn’t hold back either, exclaiming an ecstatic “OMG,” followed by—you guessed it—more heart-eyed emojis.
Towns, meanwhile, is still finding his rhythm with the Knicks, who’ve managed a single victory so far, only to face back-to-back losses against the Wizards and Celtics. Knicks fans may be fretting over their new big man’s numbers, but honestly, who’s keeping track of the box score when Jordyn Woods is courtside, turning heads and sparking fashion envy? And she isn’t just wowing athletes—she’s got the WAGs (Wives and Girlfriends of Sports Stars) community buzzing too. Gabrielle Union, a style icon herself, took a break from her own busy life to give a nod to Woods, throwing in a sparkle-filled “There she is!” that radiated pure admiration.
The New York Knicks may have left Celtics fans beaming with a resounding 132-109 win, but the real winner of the night was the woman in the high-slit skirt and crystal-studded boots, bringing her A-game to the sidelines and on social media. Perhaps Towns could take a page out of her playbook—after all, if scoring points on the court isn’t going well, maybe a little fashion inspiration could change the game.
