Lest we forget that Karl-Anthony Towns has already made his first All-Star team and had a fantastic season last year, it’s also important to note that Towns might be making another clear leap now that Jimmy Butler has taken his talents to the City of Brotherly Love.
Towns has been incredible since Day One of his NBA career, of course, winning the Rookie of the Year award with ease back in 2014-15 and averaging 25.1 points and 12.3 rebounds in his second year in the league.
Last year, Towns took a backseat to Butler and saw his volume-based stats dip (points, shot attempts, usage, assists) but his shooting percentages rise across the board as he became one of the better 3-point shooters in the league at 42.
