Towns Is Rebounding 13.9 a Game, Two More Than Last Season, Against a 13.5 Line

The rebounding jump is the whole story. Towns is at 13.9 rebounds a game in 2026-27 after 11.9 in 2025-26, a gain of 2.0. Everything else moved a little: points are 20.3 against 20.1 (0.2 more), assists 3.4 against 3.0 (0.4 more), and minutes 32.1 against 31.0.

The shooting is up too. He is at 55.1% from the field and 39.4% from three, against 50.1% and 36.8% last season. That comes on 14.0 shot attempts a game over seven games, so one hot or cold night moves it a lot. Treat the shooting numbers as a first look, not a settled level.

What has not changed much is the scoring. A 0.2-point gap is small at this sample size. The rebounds gap of 2.0 is the one that stands out from a season-long baseline of 75 games. For a wider view of who else is posting big numbers, the Statz leaders page ranks players across the league.

Across the seven games, Towns's rebounds read 16, 12, 13, 20, 14, 10 and 12 (most recent first). The line is 13.5 and the average is 13.9. Count them off: three games came in at 14 or more (16, 20 and 14), and four came in at 13 or fewer (12, 13, 10 and 12).

That split is the honest picture. The average sits above the line because of the 20-rebound game, and the middle of his log is a run of 12s and 13s. The numbers do not show a clean trend either way.

The last five games are stronger. Over that stretch he has averaged 20.2 points, 15.0 rebounds and 4.0 assists in 32.8 minutes. Against BKN on 2 Nov he had 11 points, 16 rebounds and 5 assists. At PHI on 30 Oct he had 22 points, 12 rebounds and 3 assists. The Brooklyn Nets and Philadelphia 76ers pages carry those teams' own results.

You can scan his complete line-by-line record on his full game log, and compare other players' lines on the NBA player props page. His rebounds history also has its own page: Towns rebounds game by game. For the league-wide picture, the hit rates view shows how often players have cleared their lines.

Points: his seven games read 11, 22, 19, 27, 22, 22 and 19 against a 19.5 line and a 20.3 average, with a season high of 27. Three games came in at 22 and one at 27, so four of the seven landed above 19.5. The three at or below 19 are the 11 and two 19s. The line sits just under his average, so it is a tight one. More on that: Towns points game by game.

Assists: 5, 3, 5, 3, 4, 3 and 1 against a 2.5 line and a 3.4 average. Six of the seven games were 3 or higher, and one was a 1. The line sits 0.9 below his average. See the detail at Towns assists game by game.

Points plus rebounds plus assists: 32, 37, 37, 50, 40, 35 and 32 against a 37.5 line and a 37.6 average. That is almost exactly on the line. Two games (the 40 and the 50) cleared it, and five did not, so the average is carried by one big night. To see how often lines have been cleared, check the prop streaks view, and the player streaks page for current runs.

The smaller markets are on the table below. Threes carry a 1.5 line against a 1.9 average, steals show a line of -0.5 as printed on the page against a 0.4 average, and blocks have a 0.5 line against 0.6. The NBA props page lists the same markets for other players.

Towns has played 727 regular-season games across 12 seasons. His career line is 22.7 points, 11.2 rebounds and 3.1 assists in 33.7 minutes, on 52.2% from the field, 39.6% from three and 83.9% from the line. His best scoring season was 2019-20, at 26.5 points a game for MIN, and the Minnesota Timberwolves page covers that franchise today.

Against that, 13.9 rebounds is 2.7 above his career average of 11.2. The scoring goes the other way: 20.3 points a game is 2.4 below the 22.7 he has averaged over his career. The 20.3 ranks 41st among NBA players, and he has led his team in scoring in 2 of his 7 games.

On shooting, his 55.1% from the field is above the 52.2% career mark, while his 39.4% from three is 0.2 below the 39.6% career figure. He is at 77.8% from the line this season against 83.9% for his career. With seven games played, each of those moves on small numbers. You can set him beside other players on the compare tool.

The New York Knicks are 3-4 and play at home against the Chicago Bulls on Wednesday, 4 November 2026 at 7:30 PM ET.

The lines he faces are 19.5 points, 13.5 rebounds, 2.5 assists and 37.5 points plus rebounds plus assists. His season averages are 20.3, 13.9, 3.4 and 37.6, and his last five games are 20.2 points, 15.0 rebounds and 4.0 assists.
