Karl-Anthony Towns

Karl Anthony Towns Minnesota Timberwolves 2016

For only the second time this season, the Minnesota Timberwolves have won three straight games and this week’s winning streak has a lot to do with the performance of rookie Karl-Anthony Towns.

Against Golden State, his size played a huge role in the Timberwolves comeback win. He had 20 points, 12 rebounds and 4 assists. In a win over the Sacramento Kings, he put up 17 points, 10 rebounds and 3 assists. To wrap up the week he had 27 points and 9 rebounds against the Portland Trailblazers, which also included a game winning shot.

Towns, who has more or less locked up the Rookie of the Year award for himself, had a huge hand in every team win this week.

To start off the last week, the Timberwolves went down to the Dallas Mavericks 78-88 but Towns showcased his all-round talent, falling just one assist short of his first career triple double while putting up 11 points and a career high 21 rebounds.
