Jordyn Woods was in awe of boyfriend Karl-Anthony Towns on Sunday after the Timberwolves star reached his first conference finals with a 98-90 comeback win against the reigning-champion Denver Nuggets in Game 7.
Taking to Instagram, the model shared photos of the couple hugging and smiling during a sweet postgame embrace in the back hallways of Ball Arena in Denver.
“Goodbye Denver,” she wrote with a tearful smiley face on her Instagram Story — which featured a snap of a warning sign about the altitude in Denver that read, “Low Oxygen.”
The 26-year-old Woods gushed over the NBA All-Star, 28, in a heartfelt tribute and praised the Timberwolves.
“Western Conference Finals!!! Are you kidding me!?!? Couldn’t be happier for this team and most importantly Karl,” she wrote. “He has over come so much adversity to get to the point in his career, let alone knee surgery earlier this season. I am so proud and in awe of him. This is your moment!”
Woods — who wore custom stilettos featuring the Wolves’ logo and Towns’ No. 32 for Sunday’s game — was referring to when the center had surgery to repair a left knee lateral meniscus tear in March.
Woods also shared a photo of Towns — who recorded a double-double — and his teammate, Anthony Edwards, during their hilarious and now-viral postgame press conference.
The couple celebrated four years together in May. They were best friends for years before they became romantic during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Woods supported Towns throughout the pandemic and after the deaths of seven of his family members, including mother Jacqueline Towns, who passed away from COVID-19 in April 2020.
Towns finished Sunday’s win-or-go-home contest with 23 points, 12 rebounds and two assists as he pursues his first NBA championship.
The Timberwolves will now face the Dallas Mavericks in the Western Conference Finals.
Game 1 tips off Wednesday in Minneapolis.
