Kendrick Perkins praises Karl-Anthony Towns
Karl-Anthony Towns has had an impressive NBA career, shooting 52.4% from the field and 39.8% from the 3-point line. However, his shooting efficiency has often been underappreciated due to his team’s lack of success in the playoffs until Anthony Edwards arrived.
Kendrick Perkins has however taken notice of Towns’ impressive performance in the 2024 playoffs, and recognized him as a top talent in the league. Perkins believes Towns’ name should be mentioned alongside other elite big men like Anthony Davis, and cited his impressive skills on both ends of the floor.
He's in the same conversation with Anthony Davis. He's a Top 5 talent in the NBA. One of the most skilled bigs in the NBA, especially on the offensive end.Kendrick Perkins on ESPN’s First Take
Furthermore, Perkins highlighted Towns’ defensive prowess, noting that he held Nikola Jokic to 42% shooting and Kevin Durant to 39% shooting when guarding them. This recognition is a testament to Towns’ growth and development as a player, and he is finally getting the recognition he deserves as one of the most skilled big men in the NBA.
