Midseason Review: Karl-Anthony Towns
There isn’t much that could be considered “unusual” when you look at Karl-Anthony Towns’ offensive statistics this season. His numbers are fantastic, and should be appreciated, but they aren’t surprising. We’re used to this.
His shooting percentages are as good as they’ve been in seasons past, his points per game is about one point higher than his career average, and his blocks, fouls, and turnovers are all about the same as his career per-game averages. It would seem as if it’s a normal year for Towns (All-Star-level numbers on offense).
But what we aren’t used to is Towns doing this for a competitive team.
