With breakout seasons of Joel Embiid and Kristaps Porzingis ongoing, Karl-Anthony Towns has been left out in the cold.
According to what seems like most people in the media, Towns seems to be somewhere in that second tier of big men behind Embiid, Porzingis, Anthony Davis, and DeMarcus Cousins.
KAT has been the best player on the team for most of the season, according to Dunking With Wolves’ own Jake Paynting’s weekly power rankings. And being the best player on a 11-7 Minnesota Timberwolves team that is tied for third in the brutal Western Conference makes him a very underrated big man.
