Minnesota's Karl-Anthony Towns (knee, illness) returning from 15-game absence Friday, will start
Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns will play and start on Friday in the team's game against the Indiana Pacers.
What It Means:
Towns has missed the last 15 games with a knee injury - and recently an illness on top of that. However, he's finally ready to return to the court, and he'll be a big boost to the Timberwolves' frontcourt, which has struggled in his absence. Him returning to the starting lineup likely means Gorgui Dieng will head to the bench.
Our models project Towns for 51.1 FanDuel points across 35.2 minutes of action.
