Karl-Anthony Towns has made consecutive All-Star appearances, although the 23-year-old faces a tall task to make it to the showcase game in Chicago.

While there is no doubting that Towns is among the best bigs in the NBA, his All-Star prospects will be negatively impacted by Minnesota Timberwolves' likely struggles in a Western Conference that is stacked with teams that possess more quality and depth than the Timberwolves.

Additionally, KAT also faces immense competition to land a spot ahead of a number of elite bigs in the West. Nikola Jokic will certainly make the team thanks to his near triple-double numbers, while Rudy Gobert and Steven Adams will also push for first All-Star call-ups.

When combined with the fact that LaMarcus Aldridge could also spend the entire season at center, KAT's chances appear slim.
