Knicks got 29 points and a vital extra from Towns

Karl-Anthony Towns scored 29 points and collected 13 rebounds to help lead the New York Knicks to a 109-97 victory over the Cleveland Cavaliers on Saturday. Jalen Brunson added 31 points and nine assists as New York improved its regular-season record to 5-4.

Alexander Wilson argues that Towns' rebounding and interior presence are vital assets alongside his perimeter shooting. Wilson highlights Towns' five offensive rebounds and suggests the Knicks should consistently utilize him both inside and away from the basket to maximize defensive pressure.
