Big Apple Plants

almost 3 years ago

I bought this Alocasia about a month ago. (Posted it on here) it was doing amazing until today I noticed these two yellowing leaves. I want to note that my apartment was cold for a couple of hours when the heater wasn’t working about a day ago. Could it be because of that? I also had never repotted since I got it. I decided to do that today and check if there was anything wrong with the roots. I did not notice root rot, but the roots were wrapped around with what looked like thin paper towel? Please tell me my alocasia will survive😭
