Karl-Anthony Towns seems to have found a home at the Knicks and its reflected in his impressive stats this season.
He had one of his best games as a Knick on Friday night after scoring 27 points in the first half and 32 overall in NYs Madison Square Garden win over Milwaukee.
After the game, Towns was giving all the credit to Jalen Brunson, after he assisted eight of Towns 12 made shots.
Yeah, just it starts with cap. Cap put us in positions to succeed. The gravity he was making with his talent, putting us all in spots to succeed, Towns said, via SNY.
He put me in spots to utilize my talent so shoutouts to cap and all of us together just doing what we need to do to win the game.
Towns is averaging 24.9 points, 12.3 rebounds and hitting 53.3 percent of his shots from the field and 53.7 percent of shots from three across nine games.
What seems to be helping is the fact that hes playing at the five consistently for the first time in two seasons, in the absence of the injured Mitchell Robinson, and hes seems to be loving it.
I dont just lose the ability to play the five, Towns said, after playing at the forward position 95 percent of the time at the Wolves, since the franchise had Rudy Gobert.
Towns put his strong start of the season down to being able to do what I did a lot of years at the five.
I feel Im a better version of myself, Towns said. Im smarter, more experienced, I think Im more talented than Ive ever been. So being able to utilize that for our team is what I want to do every single night so it can translate to wins.
