Karl-Anthony Towns had one of the best rookie seasons in NBA history last year. The Kentucky product came into the league and was ready to own it from the start. And that he did.
Towns became the unanimous Rookie of the Year after his fantastic season. He is by far the best young prospect in the league and almost a sure-fire future superstar.
But Towns’ work is not done, yet. Despite the already immense individual success, KAT is looking for more from the team as a whole. That starts this season. With Tom Thibodeau now leading a team of young, talented players from the sidelines, the Wolves have moderately high expectations.
KAT is willing to put a specific goal out there:
@chrissaker_11 Playoffs.

The playoffs are a great goal for the Wolves this coming season. They may be a bit too young and inexperienced to ultimately get a spot in the postseason. However, they should absolutely be striving to reach that goal.
For Towns, however, there’s more than just the playoffs to look forward to. The big man already has his sights set on bringing Minnesota its first championship:
@LALAKERSLIFE Lakers-16?, Timberwolves-0?. I gotta change that.

@J_D_Cameron when you walk into target center, you'll see more then retired jerseys up there. #championships

It’s great to see that Karl-Anthony Towns is not only one of the most talented players in the league. He is also one of the most dedicated and passionate. It will be a treat to see him and the young Wolves grow together.
