The Minnesota Timberwolves continue to outperform many people's preseason expectations and are currently right in the thick of the Western Conference playoff race.

Not only as a team are they performing well, numerous individuals throughout the Wolves roster are having amazing seasons personally too.

One of those individuals is Karl-Anthony Towns who has continued to shine on a nightly basis for the Wolves and now is getting the national attention he deserves once again.

On Thursday, Minnesota Timberwolves star Karl-Anthony Towns was named to the 2022 All-Star game as a reserve.

During the regular season so far, Towns has averaged 24.4 PPG, 9.5 RPG, 3.5 APG, 1.2 BPG, and 1.1 SPG.

He was really found a groove defensively that had been missing in the past and it certainly helped vault him to his third All-Star appearance.

Towns will be the only Timberwolves player in the All-Star Game itself, but Anthony Edwards and Jaden McDaniels will be in the Rising Stars game.

The 71st NBA All-Star Game will take place on Sunday, February 20, in Cleveland, OH.
