"Karl-Anthony Towns hits Anthony Davis with a 'too small gesture'": NBA Twitter reacts to KAT asserting dominance over his fellow Kentucky ally

Timberwolves star Karl-Anthony Towns asserts his dominance over Anthony Davis in the paint, taunting the Lakers superstar with a “too small” gesture.

The Minnesota Timberwolves defeated the short-handed LA Lakers 112-92. Karl-Anthony Towns was the leading scorer with 28-points, 10-rebounds, and 3-blocks. The two-time All-Star was sensational during the game shooting 55.0% from the field. Towns was a walking highlight reel.

On the other hand, Anthony Davis had a rough night. The former champion hurt his right ankle in the first quarter of the game, returned in the second quarter, and then bruised his left knee in the third quarter. Davis would not return to the game post that.

The eight-time All-Star played a mere 20-minutes and had 9-points and 1-rebound. It was the perfect night to witness the battle of the two big men in Towns and Davis. However, KAT prevailed over a hobbled AD. The Wolves big man has been on a tear lately.
