Let's be honest he would be a good fit for a lot of MBA teams.
Charlie Widdoes of www.nba.com posted a story on why Karl-Anthony Towns would be a good fit for the New York Knicks in the upcoming draft.
Here’s part of what he posted at http://www.nba.com/knicks/2015-draft-prospect-profile-karl-anthony-towns:
“For most Knicks fans, that dream begins with the immediate impact he could have on defense. Towns teamed with national Defensive Player of the Year Willie Cauley-Stein to form the most imposing front line in recent NCAA history -- both bigs stifled opponents with their ability to switch onto guards in pick-and-rolls or protect the rim with uncanny shot-blocking instincts.
“Towns’ elite block rate (11.4 percent of all shots) suggests he has the potential to play either power forward or center at the next level. He also added considerable strength over the course of the year, and at just 19 years old, there’s no reason to believe he can’t continue to build muscle and improve athleticism. His offensive game is still developing, but he’s unselfish and his progress throughout the season is encouraging; as his minutes increased and his team relied on him more and more, so did his scoring efficiency.
