Karl-Anthony Towns has made a lot of unexpected appearances this season, but this one belongs to a different universe entirely.
The New York Knicks big man has a cameo in The Devil Wears Prada 2, the sequel to the 2006 fashion-world classic. The role was created specifically for Towns, placing him alongside Anne Hathaway, one of the NBA’s most visible Knicks fans.
That is what makes the cameo fun. It is not just a basketball player drifting through Hollywood for a quick wink at the camera. It is a very New York collision: the Knicks, fashion, celebrity, Madison Avenue mythology and a franchise currently living inside the city’s cultural bloodstream.
