NBA player profile for Karl-Anthony Towns with stats and fantasy analysis

KARL-ANTHONY
TOWNS

Nov. 10, 2018 - The Timberwolves’ trade of All-star Jimmy Butler to the Philadelphia 76ers can only lead to good things for Towns, who clearly was not a fan of Butler or his attitude. You can expect an immediate uptick in value from the young Towns from a fantasy perspective, though we aren’t sure this is going to make him a better defensive player between the lines, something that Minnesota desperately needs to take a step forward as a contender.
