Gonna start this article with a couple of numbers.
28-for-36
71.5%
3.7
28-for-36. That is what opponents are shooting at the rim against Karl-Anthony Towns this season.
71.5%. That is what Knicks’ opponents are shooting at the rim this season. One of the worst in basketball.
3.7. That’s the blocks per game by the Knicks, 28th in the NBA.
Compare some of these numbers to last season:
Opponents shot just 53.1% at the rim against Isaiah Hartenstein last season.
