Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns Posts Dune-Inspired Hype Video Ahead of NBA ECF vs. Pacers

We're one step closer to "Ball Atreides" becoming a reality.

Ahead of the Eastern Conference Finals against the Indiana Pacers, New York Knicks star Karl-Anthony Towns shared a hype video that borrowed some dialogue from Dune:

Timothée Chalamet, who played Paul Atreides in the two most recent film adaptations, has long been a Knicks fan, and he's reveling in their success as much as anyone else.

In addition to having a front-row seat at Madison Square Garden, Chalamet was part of the frenzy outside of the arena after New York eliminated the Boston Celtics.

One can only imagine how the two-time Oscar nominee would react to a Knicks championship.

The East finals tip off Wednesday night at 8 p.m. ET in the Big Apple.

Towns was excellent against Indiana during the regular season. In three meetings, he averaged 30.3 points on 56.6 percent shooting along with 12 rebounds.

If he's that dominant again in this series, then KAT will be writing his name into Knicks lore for a long time to come.
