Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Well-rounded effort vs. Detroit
Karl-Anthony Towns supplied 21 points (8-18 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 11 rebounds, seven assists, one block and two steals in 27 minutes during Friday's 128-98 win over the Pistons.Towns was listed as questionable for Friday's game due to a left wrist sprain. He was able to play through the injury and led the New York Knicks in rebounding and assists while finishing tied with OG Anunoby for second in scoring behind Jalen Brunson (36). Towns is averaging just 3.4 three-point attempts per game to start the regular season, but he's shooting 64.7 percent from deep. That won't be sustainable, but Towns brings plenty of fantasy value in scoring -- particularly from three -- and rebounding.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Strong double-double in win
Karl-Anthony Towns ended Friday's 123-98 win over the Pacers with 21 points (5-11 FG, 2-2 3Pt, 9-10 FT), 15 rebounds, two blocks and one steal over 32 minutes.Towns was quiet in the season-opening loss to the Celtics on Tuesday, but he bounced back here and dominated near the rim on both ends of the court. That wasn't an easy thing in this matchup, as he had to deal with Pascal Siakam and Myles Turner all game long. Towns should be a strong bet for a double-double every time he steps on the court, as he notched 31 of those in 2023-24 between the regular season and the playoffs with the Timberwolves.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Quiet in season opener
Karl-Anthony Towns closed with 12 points (5-9 FG, 1-2 3Pt, 1-1 FT), seven rebounds and three assists over 24 minutes during Tuesday's 132-109 loss to the Celtics.The veteran center didn't make much of an impact in his New York Knicks debut, taking a back seat on offense to Jalen Brunson and Mikal Bridges. Towns should see his numbers grow as he gets more comfortable with his new teammates, and his familiarity with coach Tom Thibodeau's system from their time together with the Timberwolves should help accelerate the process. Towns averaged 25.4 points and 11.6 rebounds a game during the two full seasons he played under Thibodeau in Minnesota, but the 28-year-old may not be capable of that sort of production consistently at this stage of his career.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Double-doubles in preseason finale
Karl-Anthony Towns notched 22 points (7-16 FG, 0-5 3Pt, 8-10 FT), 12 rebounds, four assists and a block across 30 minutes in Friday's 118-117 preseason loss to the Wizards.Towns was traded from the Timberwolves to the New York Knicks in late September and figures to be a cornerstone for New York in 2024-25, presumably starting and center and operating as the team's second option on offense behind Jalen Brunson. There will be some adjustment period, but Towns should eventually adjust to playing in a different environment after playing each of his previous nine seasons with Minnesota.
