Following the Minnesota Timberwolves' disappointing conference finals loss to the Dallas Mavericks, Karl-Anthony Towns has come under fire for his poor performance. Despite a strong showing against the Denver Nuggets in the previous round, Towns struggled mightily against the Mavs, shooting just 37.9% from the field and 24.2% from three. Towns acknowledges the need for improvement and remains committed to leading the Timberwolves to greater success.
In the aftermath of the Minnesota Timberwolves ’ conference finals whipping at the hands of the Dallas Mavericks , the spotlight settled squarely on Karl-Anthony Towns . The good vibes from a terrific conference semifinals performance against the Denver Nuggets—18.6 points per game and some solid defense on Nikola Jokic—were washed away by a dreadful five games against the Mavs, in which Towns connected on just 37.9% of his shots—and 24.2% of his threes.
There are potential defensive issues, and it’s worth watching to see how the laid-back Towns fits into the New York media market. And the Knicksmiss DiVincenzo, who projected to be a Sixth Man of the Year front-runner this season. But basketball-wise, this makes sense.
