In his opening statement following Monday night’s Blue-White Scrimmage, UK head coach John Calipari said he would have liked to see a few guys play with a little more confidence.
But for freshman power forward Karl-Anthony Towns, confidence has never been an issue.
The 6-foot-11 forward from Piscataway, N.J., brings a rare skill set to a team with more McDonald’s All-Americans than many current NBA rosters. On the offensive end Towns sees the floor exceptionally well for a player of his size, he can space the floor by shooting the ball consistently out to 24 feet, and he has developed more post moves than the average 18-year-old hoops star.
