Jordyn Woods caught her boyfriend Karl-Anthony Towns watching a basketball game in a hilarious moment during the couple's date night at a Madison Square Garden concert.

Towns, 28, and Woods, 27, stepped out in New York City for Billie Eilish's "Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour" concert on Wednesday, Oct. 16, but the newly acquired New York Knicks star was caught watching preseason NBA basketball as the "Lunch" singer was on stage.

Woods shared a clip on her Instagram Story, which was shared by Bleacher Report, of Towns at the concert with his phone in hand, as the Minnesota Timberwolves — who selected him first overall in the 2015 draft — fell short to the Chicago Bulls in a 123-125 preseason loss.

Towns looked focused and concerned for his former franchise while Eilish performed her song "Bury a Friend" at the NYC show.

"I promise he was enjoying the concert," Woods wrote in her Story as she poked fun at her baller beau, who she's been dating since 2020.

After the trade was confirmed, the longtime Timberwolves player penned a thoughtful message to Minnesota's fanbase who supported him for years.

"Nine years ago, I arrived in Minnesota as a young man with a dream. Little did I know that this place would become my home, and its people would become my family," Towns began in his open letter on social media. "Your love, support, and unwavering loyalty have fueled my journey and inspired me to be the best player I could be."

Towns continued, "Thank you to my teammates, coaches, and the entire Timberwolves organization for the countless opportunities and experiences. I'll cherish the friendships I've made and the battles we've fought together."

He concluded his tribute by thanking the "incredible fans" whose support "has meant the world" to him. "It gave me strength on and off the court. I'll never forget it," Towns wrote.

He concluded, "You'll always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you for everything."
