What happened to KAT? He went from borderline superstar to an almost role player in the last couple years (alien.top)

Have injuries taken a toll on KAT? Is he still trying to get his rhythm back? Ever since the 2021-2022 year, it's clear as day he's taken a step back on both offensive and defense. These days, there's a 50% chance Naz Ried outplays him. I thought he was going to be a perennial all-star & all-nba player for years

They put another center who is useless offensively beside him.

Towns will never be a superstar, but the roster building in Minnesota is so braindead it’s going to have a negative effect on player performance. Two bigs, no real PG…that’s just not going to work.

It’s like they looked at the 2019-2020 Sixers and decided to reconstruct it. Embiid had one of his worst seasons playing next to Al Horford, scoring 23ppg. Next season with decent spacing he’s at 29ppg with a top-2 MVP finish.

Towns isn’t going to be in MVP conversations, but the team’s current roster will only stifle him.
