Warriors: Ranking the 5 best players potentially available in trades
By Tony Pesta
1. Karl-Anthony Towns
He may be the best center in the league, but Karl-Anthony Towns isn’t going to accomplish anything special in Minnesota.
Towns has taken his game to new levels each season. At just 24 years of age, Towns has reached two All-Star games and one All-NBA team. He is averaging a career-best 26.5 points, 11.7 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 1.3 blocks per game.
Even so, the Timberwolves sit outside the playoff picture. Despite his strong numbers each year, the Wolves consistently disappoint with a collection of talentless role players and poor coaching.
It’s only a matter of time before Towns becomes fed up with his lack of success. The Warriors are easily the best fit for Towns and his inside-out game would fit perfectly with the squad.
Towns could take the Warriors to a whole new level. He has a phenomenal post-game and is one of the best shooting big men in the league. Playing with a star supporting cast, Towns could finally compete for an NBA championship.
