Karl-Anthony Towns had a monster rookie season averaging 18.3 points, 10.5 rebounds, two assists and 1.7 blocks per game, shooting 54.2-percent from the floor and 81.1 from the free-throw line.

The 7-footer has shown incredible poise and maturity for his age, even showing a bit of three-point range — shooting 34.1-percent in his first season.
