NBC SportsKarl-Anthony Towns accumulated 23 points (8-of-18 FGs, 5-of-5 FTs), 15 rebounds, two blocks, and two 3-pointers in 36 minutes in Tuesday's 121-106 win over Orlando.

After recording 22 double-doubles last season with the Timberwolves, Towns is already up to 18. He controlled the glass on Tuesday night, with Orlando offering little resistance beyond Moritz Wagner. Towns has provided top-10 per-game value in 8- and 9-cat formats, cracking the top 5 in the latter. Given how well he's fit in with his new teammates, there's little reason to doubt KAT's ability to keep this going.

NBC SportsDaQuan Jeffries (right hand fracture) is questionable to play against the 76ers on Tuesday.

Jeffries was rerouted to Charlotte in order to make the Karl-Anthony Towns trade work this summer, but he fractured his hand right before the season started. Typically, he won't make an impact in fantasy basketball, but with LaMelo Ball and Tre Mann facing extended absences, there is a chance that he takes on some minutes when he is cleared to play. However, until he proves otherwise, he isn't worth streaming.

NBC SportsAnthony Edwards amassed 29 points (9-of-23 FGs, 7-of-8 FTs), five rebounds, five assists, three steals, and four 3-pointers in 37 minutes in Wednesday's loss to the Kings.

Edwards has scored 29 points in consecutive games, but the efficiency hasn't been great. After shooting 54% or better in three straight games in early November, he's hit 50% or better in two of his last nine. Despite that, Edwards provides top-15 per-game value in 8- and 9-cat formats. Ant-Man's fantasy value has increased as expected in the aftermath of the Karl-Anthony Towns trade.

NBC SportsKarl-Anthony Towns accounted for 25 points (7-of-16 FGs, 9-of-10 FTs), 14 rebounds, four assists, one block, and two 3-pointers in 35 minutes in Wednesday's loss to Dallas.

Towns has recorded a double-double in 12 of his 13 games in November. While Wednesday's performance wasn't the most impressive, with the Knicks getting blown out, he continues to provide top-10 fantasy value. That's above and beyond what many fantasy managers expected when Towns was traded to the Knicks just before the start of training camp.

NBC SportsKarl-Anthony Towns (left calf contusion) and Miles McBride (left knee patella femoral syndrome) are available for Monday's game against the Nuggets.

Towns and McBride are available, with the latter set to appear in a game for the first time since November 13. His return cuts into Cameron Payne's fantasy value, and both are deep-league options at best. As for Towns, he'll match up with Nikola Jokic in what should be an entertaining individual battle.
