Minnesota Timberwolves star Karl-Anthony Towns love to be in the moment.

During the Timberwolves' close fight to the Oklahoma City Thunder, he finds himself with the basketball during the waning seconds of regulation.

He had the ball away from the 3-point line with less than a minute remaining in the game. The score was tied at 119 and a point there could bring the Timberwolves the victory.

KAT then imposed his will and got to the rim for the go-ahead slam dunk over Steven Adams.

Towns, who is averaging a terrific 25.9 points, 12.3 rebounds, and 4.3 assists a night, pulled off something that you usually only see guards do on a regular basis. The speed with which he beat Adams and get on the rim should be enough to terrify big men throughout the NBA.

Unfortunately for him, the Timberwolves fell short as the Thunder managed to force overtime and get away with the dub. Towns' 30 points, five rebounds, eight assists, two steals, and two blocks weren't enough to seal the win for Minnesota.
