Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against Indiana. The four-time All-Star misses a dream fantasy matchup with left knee soreness. Minnesota starts a back-to-back on Thursday, so it's possible the team is simply resting Towns. With him out, Naz Reid will become a popular man in all fantasy formats, while Kyle Anderson could also get a bit of extra burn. The game should be full of big fantasy lines, with Vegas having set the total at 229.5 points.
Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns (personal) isn't listed on the injury report ahead of Wednesday's game against the Memphis Grizzlies. Unavailable for personal reasons during Tuesday's victory over the San Antonio Spurs, Towns is back with the team and available for Wednesday's action. Through his last 15 displays, Towns is putting up 25.3 points, 7.4 boards, 3.0 triples on 44.6% shooting from deep, and 1.0 blocks per game. The All-Star big man gets an undersized Memphis bunch that places 29th in opponent rebounding percentage (47.5%) in his return, and he could take over in the middle if Rudy Gobert (ankle) is inactive.
Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns (personal) has been ruled out for Tuesday's game against the San Antonio Spurs. Towns is a late scratch for personal reasons and won't play for the first time since late December. With the All-Star big man absent Tuesday, Naz Reid is a strong DFS bet whether Rudy Gobert (ankle) suits up or not in a cushy spot against a Spurs group that ranks 26th in opponent points per game (120.7).
Minnesota Timberwolves forward/center Karl-Anthony Towns led all scorers in the NBA All-Star Game on Sunday despite the West suffering a 211-186 loss to the East. Towns registered 50 points on 23-for-35 shooting and 4-for-13 from beyond the arc. He also finished with eight rebounds, three assists, and one turnover. Towns, along with the rest of the Western Conference All-Stars, couldn't shoot the three at the same clip as the East as they hit 17 fewer shots from deep. The Timberwolves star still delivered a big scoring night without the three-point barrage like the MVP Damian Lillard. Towns and the Timberwolves will look to hold on to their number-one seed in the West down the stretch of this season.
Minnesota Timberwolves big man Karl-Anthony Towns put up another strong performance on Thursday, with 27 points and 10 rebounds in the team's 96-94 road win over the Brooklyn Nets. The 28-year-old has been on a hot scoring stretch lately, scoring at least 27 points in three straight games, including his 62-point outburst on Monday. Towns is averaging 22.7 points and 8.8 rebounds in 33 minutes per game this year, and he'll look to continue his scoring streak on Saturday in San Antonio.
