Minnesota Timberwolves star big man Karl-Anthony Towns is off to a stellar start to the season. His Timberwolves are 3-0, while Towns is fresh off of winning the Western Conference Player of the Week honor.
Towns' play thus far this season has been scary.
Speaking of scary, Towns dressed up as the Joker for Halloween. His Joker costume and mannerisms were pretty spot-on:

Towns is averaging 32.0 points, 13.3 rebounds and 5.0 assists per game for the Timberwolves, who have wins over the Brooklyn Nets, Charlotte Hornets and Miami Heat. KAT is shooting 52.5 percent from the field, 51.7 percent from beyond the arc and 63.0 percent from the free-throw line.
Towns made his second All-Star team last season. He averaged 24.4 points, 12.4 rebounds and 3.4 assists per game while shooting 51.8 percent from the floor, 40.0 percent from the 3-point line and 83.6 percent from the charity stripe. The Timberwolves star recorded 54 double-doubles.
Towns appears well on his way to his third straight All-Star appearance. The former No. 1 overall pick is eager to lead the Timberwolves to the playoffs in the rugged Western Conference after most pundits picked Minnesota to miss the postseason.
This season, Towns doesn’t have to deal with any Jimmy Butler drama. He can just focus on playing basketball and is having fun, both on and off the court.
