The names that keep swirling around the Knicks with free agency on tapof Karl-Anthony Towns, the Timberwolves star power forward — and potential Knicks trade target — who is coming to the Garden on Saturday night for a preseason contest.

He has continued to get better I think. He had some injuries to deal with. I watched him play in FIBA , he played really well there.

Towns only played 29 games last season — mostly because of a severe calf strain — and never connected on the court with Gobert.The hope is for a rejuvenated campaign from the Timberwolves under the new ownership group featuring Alex Rodriguez.
