New York Knicks star Karl-Anthony Towns changed out of his controversial NFL gear on the sideline in the middle of Wednesday's game.

The Knicks superstar rocked a green Eagles sweater with a retro logo while sitting on the bench during New York’s contest against the rival 76ers at Wells Fargo Center. Towns, an Edison, N.J., native, has made it clear in the past that he had no problem supporting the Eagles, no matter what team in the NBA he’s playing for.

“Shut the hell up, New York Knick fans. We ain’t got time for this,” Smith said on “First Take,” via ESPN. “That brother (is) averaging 25 (points) and 13 (rebounds). He can do what he wants to do. I don’t give a damn if he wanted to wear a dashiki. Feel free. Do what you got to do. I don’t care.”

After struggling for multiple injuries lately, fans are worried if Karl-Anthony Towns will play against the Minnesota Timberwolves or not.

While Knicks fans were disappointed in Towns' decision to wear Eagles gear, teammate Jalen Brunson wasn't. In fact, the team's star was upset that Towns switched shirts at halftime — perhaps because Brunson is himself a lifelong Eagles fan.

Knicks fans didn't take kindly to Karl-Anthony Towns' Eagles sweater decision before the team's matchup against the 76ers.

Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns is questionable to face his former team Friday with a sprained right thumb, while Minnesota’s Donte DiVincenzo will miss his return to Madison Square Garden with a toe injury.
