The former #1 pick is a unicorn in the truest sense, as he became the only player in NBA history to net 2000 points, 1000 rebounds and 100 3-pointers in a single regular season campaign in 2016-17. He is an inside-outside threat in the truest sense of the word, taking 3.7 3-pointers per game and making them at a 40% clip this season.

His scoring numbers have dipped from last season with the introduction of talented scorers Jimmy Butler, Jamal Crawford and Taj Gibson into the Wolves' lineup, but one would be foolhardy to call this a regression. The Wolves are currently the NBA's #7 and the Western Conference's #4 seed, buoyed by an offensive lineup capable of rivaling any in the league on their day.
Towns owns a positive net rating of 4.4 points per 100 possessions for the first time in his young NBA career. Given the Timberwolves current standing and the fact that Towns is quite often their first option in the offense, Towns deserves to make the cut for this year's All-Star game.
