Karl-Anthony Towns has clearly missed playing basketball the last few days.
The Wolves’ star big man returned to the lineup on Monday after missing two games due to concussion-like symptoms following a car accident that occurred before the Wolves traveled to New York to take on the Knicks on Friday. On Monday, Towns was back in the Wolves’ lineup—and in a big way.
Towns finished with a monstrous line of 34 points, 21 rebounds, five assists and two blocks. He shot a ridiculous 72.2 percent from the field and hit three three-pointers.
It’s easy to see when a player is enjoying their time on the floor, and Towns’ energy, aggressiveness and joy were contagious.
