Karl-Anthony Towns Fantasy Stats

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) will play against Brooklyn on Sunday. A knee contusion kept him off the floor against the Nets on Friday, but Towns makes a quick return. The Knicks' new star center had 46 points against Chicago in his last outing and has hit the 30-point mark four times in his most recent five appearances. He's in a great position to do a lot of damage again on Sunday, as Brooklyn is missing Nicolas Claxton (back) and hasn't done very well defensively against opposing centers. Jericho Sims lands back on the bench with Towns' return.

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) is questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Brooklyn Nets. The 29-year-old All-Star is dealing with a left knee contusion that sidelined him in Friday's win, and it's unclear if he'll be ready to return. Towns has been a key contributor this season, posting impressive averages of 26.5 points and 12.2 rebounds per game. In his last outing, he erupted for 46 points and 10 rebounds against the Chicago Bulls. Should Towns remain out, Jericho Sims could once again see extended minutes in the starting lineup.

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) has received a questionable tag for their Friday night matchup against the Brooklyn Nets. The former Minnesota Timberwolf has put up some fantastic offensive performances since joining the Knicks, and if he plays in this New York rivalry, he'll be primed for another big night against a weaker Nets frontcourt. On the other hand, if he doesn't suit up, the Knicks frontcourt is already thin, so Jericho Sims would see big minutes and join the starting five.

New York Knicks forward Karl-Anthony Towns is available and starting for the Knicks on Friday in their matchup against the Detroit Pistons. Towns was originally listed as questionable with a wrist injury but will be able to play through the pain. The 28-year-old will have a tough matchup against the Pistons who have been strong defensively against forwards. Towns has been sporadic in his offensive production so far, posting up point totals of 12, 21, 13 and 44 on the season. He's providing much more consistency from a rebounding perspective, averaging 11.3 RPG. Fantasy managers will certainly still want him in their starting lineups no matter what. DFS managers may want to take caution with adding him in their lineups given the volatility of tonight's matchup.

New York Knicks forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns (wrist) is questionable for Friday's contest against the Detroit Pistons. KAT was decent in his first three games as a Knick. Yet, he came to life in Wednesday's win over the Miami Heat, ending the night with 44 points and 13 rebounds while going 4-for-5 from behind the arc. The Knicks are thin as it is underneath the basket, so the team can't afford any more absences. If Towns can't get on the floor, Jericho Sims and Ariel Hukporti could split time underneath the rim, although neither player is worth adding to any redraft roster.

New York Knicks center Karl-Anthony Towns is expected to suit up for the preseason opener on Sunday. Towns was traded to the Knicks in the end of September and is likely to make his team debut here. Head coach Tom Thibodeau said he plans on playing his starters, but didn't say how long they'd play. It's unlikely he pushes his starter too hard in an exhibition game, but at least Knicks fans will get to see their first taste of Towns.

Minnesota Timberwolves center/forward Karl-Anthony Towns is on his way to New York as a trade is finalized to send him to play with the new-look Knicks. According to Shams Charania of The Athletic, the star big man will be reunited with his old head coach as Julius Randle, Donte DiVincenzo, and a first-round pick head to Minnesota. The Knicks are also sending salary, as well as DaQuan Jeffries, and draft compensation to the Charlotte Hornets as part of this deal. There hasn't been any word if the Hornets are sending any assets to either team in this trade. Towns has played all nine years of his career in Minnesota and was a key piece to the team's success this past season which saw them come one series away from the NBA Finals. The Knicks were in need of a big man after Mitchell Robinson (foot) was ruled out for the first couple of months, and now they land a star center to go along with Mikal Bridges, Jalen Brunson, Josh Hart, and OG Anunoby.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns has just enjoyed the longest postseason campaign of his career with the team, but his time in Minneapolis might be nearing an end. "I do not think they would tear the team apart, however, I do think there's a possibility if the ownership change took place that Karl Towns' role would be reevaluated," said ESPN's Brian Windhorst on The Hoop Collective podcast. The Timberwolves ownership situation remains in limbo, with a three-person arbitration panel set to decide if Glen Taylor has the right to remain the owner of the ball club or if Marc Lore and Alex Rodriguez can complete their purchasing process, which began in 2021.

Minnesota Timberwolves center/forward Karl-Anthony Towns was the only player on the team outside of Anthony Edwards who scored double-digit points in a blowout loss that ended their season on Thursday night. In the 103-124 loss, Towns registered 28 points, 12 rebounds, two assists, one steal, and two turnovers while shooting 9-for-20 from the floor and 1-for-6 from downtown. The 28-year-old registered a solid season despite taking a backseat to Edwards and dealing with some more injuries. He posted 21.8 points, 8.3. rebounds, 3.0 assists, 2.2 threes, and 2.9 turnovers per game while making his fourth All-Star game.

Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns managed to end his shooting slump in Tuesday's Game 4 against Dallas, hitting 9-for-13 from the field en route to 25 points in a 105-100 win. After nailing only three shots with 22 attempts from deep across the first three games of the series, Towns was 4-for-5 with the three-ball. He recorded five rebounds and one assist while battling foul trouble all game. With Towns back in form, this series might not be over after all. Minnesota can make it 3-2 at home on Thursday, and we should see Towns in a prominent role again.
