The Timberwolves are currently first in the Western Conference and are in a close battle with the Denver Nuggets and the Oklahoma City Thunder for the top spot. Towns is tallying 21.7 points, 8.9 rebounds, and 3.1 assists per game on 51.2% shooting from the floor. He has also nailed 75 triples on an incredible 41.9% shooting from the deep. Therefore, there’s no denying that KAT is the best shooting big man in the NBA.
Karl-Anthony Towns is a career 52.5% shooter from the field and 39.7% from three. Those, along with a career 83.8% from the foul line, are incredible numbers for a big in today’s league. The veteran center has even upped his numbers a little this season. There’s no denying that he deserves an All-Star nod this season.
Jordyn Woods and Karl-Anthony Towns are an underrated NBA couple
Woods and Towns have known each other for many years. Before they started dating each other, they shared a close friendship which amounted to a romantic involvement in May 2020. They disclosed they were involved in an intimate partnership in September 2020 and since then they are frequently seen in each other’s company. Woods announced the relationship on her Instagram show Regularish.
“I think it’s kind of cool dating your best friend. We know each other. We know each other’s hearts. We know each other on good days and bad days and we’ve been through a lot of bad days together,” revealed Woods on Regularish
It is not surprising that she is regularly courtside when her bae is draining buckets. Woods’ All-Star endorsement might help her boyfriend get his fourth career All-Star nod this year.
