If you haven’t heard, one of the Big Blue Nation’s all-time favorite people exploded for the most points in a single NBA game this season on Monday night. That man was none other Karl-Anthony Towns of the Minnesota Timberwolves, who ripped off a franchise-high 60 points in a 149-139 win over the San Antonio Spurs.
Towns, who played at Kentucky during the Wildcats’ 38-1 run to the Final Four in 2015, finished with a final stat line of 60 points, 17 rebounds, and three assists on 19-31 shooting from the floor, including a 7-11 mark from beyond the arc.
