Wolves draft night moves
FIRST ROUND
(No. 1 overall)
Karl-Anthony Towns C, Kentucky
Height: 6-11. Weight: 248
Age: 19.
One of the best defenders in the draft, Towns — according to College Basketball Reference's defensive rating estimate — allowed fewer points per 100 possessions on plays he individually faced than any other college player. Perhaps not as polished offensively as Duke's Jahlil Okafor, the draft's No. 2 pick, Towns was efficient while playing on a team so deep that his minutes were limited. He averaged 10.3 points, 6.7 rebounds and 2.3 blocks while playing 21.1 minutes per game.
(No. 24 overall)
Tyus Jones G, Duke
Height: 6-1. Weight: 190
Age: 19
