Impressive double-double Towns posted 36 points (8-15 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 17-18 FT), 16 rebounds and an assist across 30 minutes in Saturday's 128-125 win over the Hawks.

Impact Towns had a dominant performance on offense but was also outstanding on the glass, as he ended just two boards shy of tying his season-high output in that category. Towns also bounced back from the 11-point dud he posted on Christmas against the Cavaliers, and this was the third time he notched at least 35 points in a game since the beginning of December. Jalen Brunson remains the Knicks' go-to player on offense, but Towns is an excellent No. 2 alternative who can take over a game on any given matchup.

Double-double in Christmas win Towns contributed 11 points (5-13 FG, 0-2 3Pt, 1-2 FT), 14 rebounds, one assist and two steals across 27 minutes during Thursday's 126-124 victory over the Cavaliers.

Impact The double-double was his 20th of the season. Towns' production has been erratic in December, perhaps due to nagging lower-body injuries that have cost him two of the Knicks' 11 games this month. When he's been on the court, the veteran center has averaged 22.2 points, 11.3 boards, 2.1 assists, 1.8 threes and 1.1 steals, but he pulled down double-digit rebounds in only five of those nine contests -- something he accomplished in 17 of his first 19 appearances in 2025-26.

Shines in return to Minnesota Towns logged 40 points (14-24 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 9-11 FT), 13 rebounds, one assist and one steal over 35 minutes during the Knicks' 115-104 loss to the Timberwolves on Tuesday.

Impact It was Towns' second game in Minnesota since being traded by the Timberwolves to the Knicks in October of 2024. The superstar big man put on a show in his return, carrying the Knicks' offense in the absence of Jalen Brunson (ankle) to finish with a season-high 40 points, though it wasn't enough for New York to come away with the road win. It was Towns' 19th double-double of the season -- which is third most in the NBA behind Nikola Jokic (26) and Jalen Johnson (20) -- and since Dec. 2 he has averaged 23.6 points on 54.6 percent shooting along with 11.0 rebounds, 2.3 assists, 2.0 threes and 1.0 steals over 32.7 minutes per game.

Passive showing Sunday Towns chipped in two points (1-5 FG, 0-2 FT), six rebounds, two assists and two steals over 29 minutes during Sunday's 132-125 win over Miami.

Impact Towns struggled to get much going, turning in season lows in both points and boards. The superstar big man had scored in double digits in 23 of his 25 appearances prior to Sunday, so this performance appears to be an aberration. Over his last eight outings, Towns has averaged 21.4 points, 10.4 rebounds, 2.4 assists and 1.8 three-pointers in 32.2 minutes per game.

Double-doubles in loss Towns produced 22 points (7-15 FG, 1-5 3Pt, 7-9 FT), 11 rebounds and one assist across 35 minutes during Friday's 116-107 loss to the 76ers.

Impact This was Towns' 18th double-double of the year, firmly putting him in the No. 2 spot for the most double-doubles this season. The 30-year-old big man has been a steady top-20 producer this season behind averages of 22.4 points, 11.8 rebounds, 3.1 assists, 1.8 triples, 0.8 steals and 0.8 blocks per contest.

Good to go Friday Towns (knee) is available for Friday's game against the 76ers, Ky Carlin of USA Today reports.

Impact After sitting out Thursday's win over the Pacers due to left knee soreness, Towns will shed his probable tag for the second leg of New York's back-to-back set. Over five regular-season appearances in December, the star big man has averaged 25.0 points, 11.6 rebounds, 2.8 assists and 1.0 steals in 32.4 minutes per contest. With Towns and Mitchell Robinson (ankle) both back in the lineup, Ariel Hukporti should see a significant dip in minutes.

Expected to play Towns (knee) is probable for Friday's game against the 76ers.

Impact After missing the front end of this back-to-back set Thursday, Towns is expected back in the lineup. Presumably, the Knicks were just being cautious with Towns following their NBA Cup run. With Towns expected back, Ariel Hukporti will likely slide back to the bench after logging 27 minutes Thursday.

Won't go Thursday Towns (knee) has been ruled out for Thursday's game against the Pacers, Stefan Bondy of The New York Post reports.

Impact Towns will miss his second matchup of December, this time due to a knee injury he picked up during Tuesday's game against the Spurs. The Knicks are decimated without Towns, Mitchell Robinson (ankle) and Josh Hart (abdomen), so it'll be up to the likes of Guerschon Yabusele, Ariel Hukporti, Jordan Clarkson and Pacome Dadiet to step up in the frontcourt.
