Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Dominates glass Monday
Towns finished with 11 points (4-11 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 16 rebounds and five assists across 35 minutes in Monday's 103-90 win over the Nets.
Towns struggled offensively, failing to score in the first half before finishing with 11 points. However, his 16 rebounds and five assists helped compensate for the disappointing scoring output. Towns continues to provide substantial fantasy value through rebounding and playmaking, and his scoring has been solid for the most part. While this 11-point performance was a season-low mark, he had scored at least 19 points in each of his previous six showings.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Extends double-double streak Friday
Towns ended with 22 points (8-15 FG, 3-7 3Pt, 3-3 FT), 12 rebounds, three assists and one block over 35 minutes in Friday's 98-93 loss to Philadelphia.
Towns suffered a sprained wrist in Wednesday's victory over Chicago and carried an injury designation heading into this contest. However, he was cleared to suit up for the Knicks' first game of NBA Cup group play. The 2015 No. 1 overall pick played well, finishing the night with his sixth double-double in as many games while remaining efficient shooting the ball. In six regular-season appearances in the 2026-27 campaign thus far, Towns has averaged 21.8 points, 13.5 rebounds and 3.2 assists across 31.7 minutes per outing. He has also shot 41.4 percent from downtown.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Double-doubles again Wednesday
Towns ended with 19 points (7-14 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 13 rebounds, five assists and one steal across 28 minutes in Wednesday's 133-127 win over the Bulls.
Towns couldn't hit the 20-point mark for the fourth straight game, but it was still a solid showing overall. The 30-year-old has now finished with a double-double in each of his first five appearances of the 2026-27 campaign, though turnovers have been an issue. Towns did exit the game briefly after suffering a left wrist injury in the first quarter. While he managed to return and finish the contest, there's a chance he'll appear on the injury report ahead of Friday's game in Philadelphia.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Dominant performance Tuesday
Towns finished with 27 points (12-21 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 2-2 FT), 20 rebounds and three assists across 33 minutes in Tuesday's 111-97 victory over the Pistons.
It wasn't a perfect game from Towns, who shot an inefficient 20.0 percent from deep while turning the ball over seven times. However, the 2015 No. 1 overall pick was the top scorer in this contest and finished with at least 20 rebounds for the 23rd time in his career to lead the Knicks to their first win of the 2026-27 campaign.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Double-doubles with two stocks
Towns recorded 22 points (8-15 FG, 0-4 3Pt, 6-7 FT), 14 rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block over 33 minutes in Sunday's 111-102 loss to the Magic.
Towns has looked great to open the 2026-27 season, scoring efficiently while racking up three straight double-doubles, but that hasn't translated to wins for the defending champs. The Knicks are 0-3 to begin the year, and they'll have their work cut out for them Tuesday against Detroit.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Turns in big double-double
Towns registered 22 points (9-13 FG, 2-3 3Pt, 2-3 FT), 10 rebounds, three assists and one steal across 37 minutes during Friday's 107-103 loss to Boston.
That's now back-to-back double-doubles to begin the campaign for the star big man, who led the Knicks in scoring. After getting into foul trouble during Tuesday's Opening Night loss to the 76ers, it was encouraging to see Towns be able to stay on the floor more consistently Friday.

Knicks' Karl-Anthony Towns: Overcomes foul trouble Tuesday
Towns ended with 19 points (6-9 FG, 3-4 3Pt, 4-7 FT), 12 rebounds, one assist, one steal and two blocks over 24 minutes in Tuesday's 106-100 loss to Philadelphia.
Towns found himself in early foul trouble on Opening Night. As a result, he would finish the first half with just five points in six minutes of work. It was a different story in the second half, with the 30-year-old veteran amassing 14 points, including 10 in the fourth quarter. It wasn't a perfect game from Towns, who could be entering his final year as a Knick. Still, he began the year with a double-double, and while he also had issues taking care of the ball, it was a good start to the 2026-27 campaign.
