Knicks’ Karl-Anthony Towns ‘disappointed’ in himself despite big night

Karl-Anthony Towns managed his highest scoring output of the season Wednesday night, but he remained on the court long after the Knicks’ last-second loss to the Bulls working on his game. 

Towns pumped in a season-high 46 points, but he missed two key free throws in the fourth quarter in a game the Knicks overcame a 22-point hole in the second half before falling 124-123 to the Bulls. 

Towns was seen on the Garden floor, shooting around 35-40 free throws long after the final buzzer sounded. 

“Not a lot, but I was disappointed in that display of free-throw shooting by me,” Towns said after the game. “I expect to make them all. When you look back at the game, especially when you don’t come out with a win in a tough game like this, you look at everything that you could have done in the mirror. 

“If I make a few of those free throws, at least two or three of them, you put your team in a different position.” 

Towns, an 83.9 percent free-throw shooter for his career, missed four of eight in the game, including a pair with 5:56 left in the fourth quarter and the Knicks trailing by one.
