Could the Knicks trade for Karl-Anthony Towns?

The New York Knicks boast one of the strongest lineups in the NBA, although their center position might be upgraded slightly. For the Knicks, Minnesota Timberwolves center Karl-Anthony Towns is a standout worth trading for.

Towns, who was born about an hour away from Madison Square Garden, has long been reported to be a target of Leon Rose and the Knicks. A starting lineup of Jalen Brunson, Mikal Bridges, Josh Hart, OG Anunoby, and Towns would genuinely put up the Boston Celtics for the best of the NBA. The Knicks have long been fascinated by the concept of dealing for Towns, and it may be time to make it a reality. This past season, Towns averaged just under 22 points per game as the Wolves' second option behind Anthony Edwards. His scoring presence would push the Knicks over the top on the offensive side of the ball.
