The national media profiles of Kentucky's players continue to pour in, and while most of them aren't news to us (Willie played football! Karl Towns is a great kid!), I had to share this one from The New York Post's Zach Braziller just for that picture of a baby Karl and his sister, Lachelle. Can you believe Karl was ever that small?!

Braziller spoke with Karl's dad Karl Sr., who had some great quotes to share about Karl's famous work ethic. This one stood out to me:
“Our motto has always been [bad] things happen after midnight,” Karl Sr. said. “He didn’t party, he didn’t drink. He was always focused on his basketball, he was focused on his education, and he was focused on all the things in life he wants to do. He wants to build a hospital in the Dominican Republic. He wants to be a kinesiologist.”I was fortunate enough to stand next to Karl Sr. on the court after UK beat Notre Dame, and as Karl climbed the ladder to cut the net, Karl Sr. yelled at his son to turn around so he could take a picture. Karl put his piece of the net in his mouth, turned and gave his dad a smile that spoke volumes. [New York Post]
