Timberwolves' Karl-Anthony Towns scores 37 with career-high 22 rebounds
Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns scored 37 points with a career-high 22 rebounds in Saturday's 142-130 loss to the Houston Rockets.
KAT has been the top player in standard leagues for over a month and showed why tonight, shooting 16-of-24 from the field, 4-of-4 from the line and 1-of-2 from beyond the arc with three assists, one block and one steal. He took advantage of a Houston team that has allowed the fourth most fantasy points to centers this season, and he gets another great matchup on Monday against the Sacramento Kings.
At a cost of $10,300 on FanDuel, Towns more than recouped his value by scoring 67.9 FD Points (6.59 value). Among the 17 NBA big men playing 30 minutes per game or more, KAT's 27.5 percent Usage Rate is third-best. He also has the sixth-best Effective Field Goal Rate among these players.
