The New York Knicks continue their search for a third star to join forces with Jalen Brunson and Julius Randle. The team’s recent consideration of Karl-Anthony Towns from the Minnesota Timberwolves could have provided an answer.
Assessing Towns’ Fit with the Knicks
Towns, having previously played under coach Tom Thibodeau, is well-versed in the expectations for starters in his rotation. However, the Knicks opted not to pursue this path, considering Towns’ substantial contract and inconsistencies.
Despite his three All-Star appearances, Towns has only played over 70 games once since 2018.
