Who y'all got. Of course I'm going AD. Followed by Demarcus, then Towns.

Towns won the skills competition so it has to be him.

Have you seen Towns play? Look at his rookie numbers compared to AD. Towns is a beast, son.

I would start with AD. Best player to come through UK since Dan Issel.

I would probably then go with KAT and Cousins, just because I think KAT has more versitility in his playing style.

This.

I mean I get the Towns love, but he still has to make some pretty impressive strides to be on AD's level. People love how young Towns is - 20 years old - but AD is still only 22 himself. When you look at it based on age, not experience, I have a hard time taking anyone other than AD.

Towns 17.1 ppg, 10.2 rpg, 1.5 apg, .6 spg, 1.8 bpg .535 fg% .852 ft% 22.8 PER

At this point in the season, Towns has played about at many minutes as AD's rookie year. Numbers are pretty similar with Towns edging him out by a very slight margin in most categories.

Towns has a 22.8 PER, AD had a 21.7 PER.

However, Towns usage rate is about 4% higher than AD's was. You could argue that with identical usage rates, their rookie year stats would be essentially identical.


Towns is a fricking stud, and will be for many many years.
