C 2 - Karl-Anthony Towns (Minnesota Timberwolves)

Minnesota Timberwolves are a team caught in flux

Preview:

The Minnesota Timberwolves having a rollercoaster of a season. From Jimmy Butler calling out the front office and his teammates, to him finally getting traded, they have gone through a lot of off-court drama.

They are currently 11th in the Western Conference, even after all this, their on-court chemistry seems intact. They have a 21-22 record and won six of their last 10 matches.

Last 3 games:

1. 12/1/2019: Win against the New Orleans Pelicans, 110-106

2. 11/1/2019: Loss against the Dallas Mavericks, 114-119

3. 8/1/2019: Win against the Oklahoma City Thunder, 119-117.

Player performance and review:

Karl-Anthony Towns has started playing at an amazing level this season after Jimmy Butler was traded to the 76ers.

He has been going off lately and has improved his defense as well. He has been averaging more than 22 points per game, along with just under 13 rebounds as well and 3 assists a game as well.

His improved defense has been a long time coming and is now showing. In the win over the New Orleans Pelicans, he scored 27 points, along with 27 rebounds and 3 assists as well. He had 2 steals and 4 massive blocks as well, winning the duel against Anthony Davis.

Alternate pick: Steven Adams (Oklahoma City Thunder)
