The Knicks, still fighting their way through a mixed, but Karl-Anthony Towns’ dominant offensive start to the season has been a major positive to build on in the coming weeks and months.

Karl-Anthony Towns didn’t play in Friday’s contest against the Nets because of a contused left knee, an injury he picked up toward the end of Wednesday’s heartbreaking defeat to the Bulls . Towns had knocked legs with Chicago’s Zach LaVine. He limped through a couple possessions, grimacing in pain, but never checked out.

The Knicks are struggling early in the 2024-25 season but that shouldn't take away from what Karl-Anthony Towns is doing.
