Flames engulf Los Angeles, sparing no one. Homes, restaurants, schools—everything burns to ashes. The wildfires wreak havoc, and the situation is so dire that only prayers can offer hope to the residents of Palisades. Authorities are evacuating areas and issuing emergency alerts. The chaos is spreading and among those caught in the turmoil is Jordyn Woods‘ brother.

Karl-Anthony Towns’ girlfriend, Jordyn Woods, has been in New York City to attend the games. She was accompanied by the ever-iconic Simone Biles courtside for the Knicks vs. Thunder on Friday. However, despite being in NYC, her heart was in LA, as she watched her city burn. In light of the situation, Jordyn took to Instagram Stories to provide a quick update to her fans, reassuring them that her family was safe. Additionally, she expressed her prayers for everyone’s safety amidst the chaos. In another Story, Woods wrote:

“The city will never be the same. I am blessed to be in NY during this time but can only think of my brother who is working the streets and the front-line responders. PLEASE, if you are in LA try your best to stay masked up. There’s power in unity and numbers. We must stick together in these scary times, This is when community matters the most.”

Clearly, Jordyn Woods is scared for her loved ones and her city. Naturally, it’s understandable to fear the ‘scary times,’ as the devastation seems beyond repair. However, in the midst of this, Russell Westbrook‘s wife, Nina, shared words that provided Jordyn with a moment’s relief.

Los Angeles is known as the home of countless Hollywood celebrities and sports stars. However, the fire doesn’t discriminate between a common man and a celebrity. Amid this crisis, stars and their families who have managed to escape the fire are sending out prayers and messages of motivation to the residents of Palisades and the surrounding neighborhoods. Furthermore, even those who aren’t from or around Los Angeles are offering their prayers, hoping for the city to heal.

Amidst all prayers, Jordyn Woods found peace in the Denver Nuggets star, Russell Westbrook’s wife, Nina’s words. KAT’s girlfriend reposted Mrs. Westbrook’s post on her IG Story which says: “I have been at a loss of words for days. The only thing I can currently think of is to express my gratitude to all the firefighters, pilots, and first responders who are working tirelessly, putting their lives on the line, and performing some of the most incredible stunts I’ve ever witnessed to bring an end to this nightmare we’re experiencing here in LA. Thank you.”

As Jordyn mentioned, her brother is working on the frontline to help LA residents evacuate. Nina Westbrook’s message felt personal to her. While keeping faith in the warriors fighting the fire, Woods expresses gratitude to those praying for her and her city. LA needs prayers and support right now. In response, the stars are offering just that.
