Good solid pick. We got a solid young core...

Rube - Lavine - Wiggins - Bazz - Towns - Dieng - maybe Bjelica

Was hoping we'd get Vaugh. Not big on Jones.

By the way don't be surprised if you see his name somewhere as ...

Karl-Anthony Towns Cruz

This is his complete legal name as Dominic Republic citizen following Spanish name conventions.
Towns is the name of the fater and Cruz the name of the mother.
Like Ricard Rubio Vives is the legal name of Ricky Rubio.

On and off the court this guy is nothing but quality. Can't wait to see him in the pros.

Congratulations Wolves fans :)

Having a mini-doll of yourself didn't work out that well for Penny in the injury department...

Lose Karlito Karl...

While I don't think Towns ever becomes a top 5 player in the NBA, he seems like the type of player who is an integral part of a winning system. I finally feel like we will be able to win with a guy like KAT. Wiggins and KAT will be a beautiful thing for years to come here and I can't wait!
