Karl-Anthony Towns's Stats, Metrics, Game Logs, Projections & Rankings

The Athletic's Shams Charania reports the Minnesota Timberwolves are optimistic that center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) will play before the playoffs start. Towns participated in his first team scrimmage on Sunday since undergoing surgery to repair a torn left meniscus on March 12, and the West-leading T-Wolves hope the 28-year-old All-Star big man can ramp up his minutes ahead of the postseason. While Towns is set to be officially re-evaluated ahead of Tuesday's contest versus the Washington Wizards, he should still be considered doubtful for that one. Naz Reid is averaging 18.7 points, 7.7 rebounds, 2.2 assists, 3.2 three-pointers, and 2.5 combined steals plus blocks over his last 11 games (all starts) and will continue starting alongside Rudy Gobert in Minnesota's frontcourt until Towns is ready to go. The Wizards are allowing more DraftKings points to opposing power forwards than any other this season.

Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns (knee) will undergo surgery to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee and is out indefinitely. The team had already ruled him out for Thursday's tilt with the Pacers. He will be reevaluated around April 8th but will likely miss the final four regular season games. Naz Reid will be relied upon in Towns' absence, and Kyle Anderson should see a more significant role in the team's rotation.

According to The Athletic's Shams Charania, Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Town has been diagnosed with a torn meniscus in his left knee and is out indefinitely. Minnesota had already ruled him out for Thursday's clash with the Pacers, and it now looks like it's going to be a while until we see Towns on the court again. Towns' absence makes Naz Reid a hot commodity, while Kyle Anderson also looks set to play a larger part in the rotation.

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.
