The property, which was his main home for much of his career in Minneapolis, has approximately
17,000 square feet of construction, equivalent to more than
1,500 square meters, and is distinguished by its high level of luxury, privacy, and exclusive design.
A Superstar Residence
The mansion was designed to meet all the needs of an elite athlete. It includes large social halls, multiple rooms, private rest areas,
heated indoor pool,
gym,
home theater, recreational rooms and outdoor spaces equipped for sports activities and social gatherings.
For several years, the residence was the scene of family gatherings and private events, becoming a symbol of Towns’ roots in Minnesota.
A change that marks a new stage
The sale coincides with the recent transfer of the Dominican-American center to the
New York Knicks, a move that redefines his career after almost a decade as the face of the Timberwolves, the franchise that selected him as the first overall pick of the
2015 Draft.
With Minnesota, Towns established himself as one of the most complete big men in the NBA, participated in multiple All-Star Games, and was a key piece in the team’s competitive resurgence.
Beyond Basketball
Off the court, Towns has been an influential figure for his community leadership, especially after the loss of his mother,
Jacqueline Cruz, during the COVID-19 pandemic. Her legacy has strengthened his bond with the
Dominican Republic, a country to which he has paid constant tributes.
New challenge in New York
Now with the Knicks, Towns faces the challenge of becoming a key player for one of the most historic and media-covered franchises in the NBA, which seeks to return to prominence and the fight for championships.
The sale of his mansion in Minnesota symbolizes the closing of an important chapter in his life and the beginning of a new stage in the heart of American basketball.
