The extension begins with the 2024-25 season. Towns made All-NBA 3rd Team, qualifying for the supermax deal.
Led by Towns, second-year phenom Anthony Edwards and point guard D’Angelo Russell, the seventh-seeded Timberwolves pushed the second-seeded Grizzlies to the brink in the first round of the Western Conference playoffs before ultimately falling to Memphis.
The 26-year-old has become one of the league’s most dominant offensive big men during his eight years in Minnesota.
The No. 1 overall pick in 2015, Towns averaged 24.6 points, 9.8 rebounds and 3.6 assists in 33.5 minutes per game last season.
