The pressures that bond Karl-Anthony Towns and Anthony Edwards

The Minnesota Timberwolves had just beaten the Portland Trail Blazers, their second win in three games since the All-Star break, so Karl-Anthony Towns was in a particularly good mood. Winning stretches like this haven't come around that often the past few years.

But while sources at United said that Woodward's decision is not related to the controversial attempts to lead the club into a breakaway European Super League, ESPN has been told that the likely collapse of the plan in the wake of the withdrawals of United, Manchester City, Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur and Liverpool -- with Chelsea expected to follow -- on Tuesday has in fact accelerated Woodward's decision.
