karl-ksr During a fake episode of Kentucky Sports Radio for HBO's cameras, Matt asked Karl Towns if he believes he should be the first overall pick in next month's NBA Draft. Towns, being the good sport he is, would not pick himself over his good friend, Jahlil Okafor "I'm just going to be blessed to have the opportunity to play in the NBA," he told KSR. "I just want the opportunity to play there, it doesn't matter where (I get picked)." Towns believes he will be able to contribute right away, no matter where he goes in the league. He said, "I'm very confident in myself. I played two seasons professionally already, and if you count this season (at Kentucky), it's three."
