The New York Knicks as a whole have struggled mightily over these past few weeks, but the player who has arguably received the most flak for their struggles throughout this ongoing rut is Karl-Anthony Towns.
Despite being one of the club's lone two All-NBA talents, the 30-year-old has been absolutely abysmal as of late, especially since the calendar page flipped to January, where he's been a net negative (-5.3 plus-minus) on the floor while posting mediocre averages of 17.7 points on 43.2 percent shooting from the floor and 32.4 percent shooting from distance.
Considering how he just recorded his best year in the association a season ago and was off to a hot two-month start in year two with the Knicks before his current stretch, these on-court hardships come as a rather grueling surprise.
