Karl-Anthony Towns looked sadly out of a window in his apartment. The sky, frustratingly, was a bright, wintery blue. “Where’s the snow, Ricky? You said there would be snow.” he whined, pressing his nose against the cold glass. Ricky Rubio’s annoyed voice came from the kitchenette. “I never promised anything, Karl, and you know that….

Karl-Anthony Towns 17 Points Full Highlights (11/29/2015)
Now THIS is how you develop a rookie. Don’t let him get any easy looks in the paint. How is Karl-Anthony Towns going to get better if he has someone feeding him bunnies underneath the basket? He isn’t. The only way, and I mean the ONLY way, he’s going to improve is if he has…

Oh damn. Karl-Anthony Towns can shoot threes now? Damn. Damn damn damn. I’ve already forgotten about Andrew Wiggins, henceforth referred to as “Second Banana” or just “Banana”. With Karl-Anthony adding a long-bomb to his repertoire, he is officially the completest offensive talent on the Timberwolves. What can’t he do? Crossovers? I bet he could if…

As the Timberwolves milled around the gym, drinking their Gatorade and chatting idly amongst one another, Karl-Anthony Towns started off running towards the exit, an excited look on his face and his hastily-applied bright red scarf trailing behind him. The still assembled players could hear a faint voice emanating from the corridors…
