Karl-Anthony Towns plays like a seven-foot tall guard in many ways. The Minnesota Timberwolves star is a capable inside scorer, but it's his long-range shooting and ability to take other bigs off the dribble in space that sets him apart.
But it looks like the Timberwolves star plans to do some more banging in the post next season. Towns revealed his workout regiment this offseason consisted mainly of adding muscle.
Via Timberwolves reporter Dane Moore:
“Instead of trying to be more flexible and quick, let’s try to be more strong and big… I joked around the whole offseason I wanted to be a GI Joe. My workouts consisted of lifting the heaviest dumbbell in the whole gym.”
It certainly looks like Towns has put in the work. His latest snaps wearing the new Timberwolves jersey posted on Instagram showcase some added bulk on his previously lanky frame.

Towns isn't afraid to flex his newfound gains, either. Quite literally, in fact. Check out the TWolves center looking extra swole in a recent workout post.
