Incredible shooting, impeccable touch, and an amazing post game—those were the things we were promised with Karl-Anthony Towns. So far, he has delivered on all fronts and exceeded expectations early. But more than anything, it has been his passing that has been the most impressive.
Towns has always been skilled enough to make the necessary passes physically, but he has only averaged more than 3.6 APG three times in his nine years coming into this season. Because of that, many wondered what replacing Julius Randle with Towns would look like as far as playmaking went.
