Out of all players in the league, Karl-Anthony Towns slots into the 99th percentile for personal fouls, registering a whopping 3.3 fouls per game this year.This year when they are at home, opposing starting PFs have averaged 0.9 three-pointers per game (fewest in the NBA) vs. the Phoenix Suns, marking this as a difficult matchup.The Minnesota Timberwolves will likely suffer a reduction in opportunities in this contest from facing the 8th-most sluggish pace-of-play road offense in the NBA over the last 5 games (the Suns).The Timberwolves check in as the 4th-worst offensive rebounding offense in the league playing at home this year (offensive rebounds maintain possession, and a lack of them may therefore eliminate extra chances for scoring and assists).
