KAT is currently averaging 22.2 on 50.3-41.8-91.1 shooting splits, while Naz is averaging 12.6ppg on 51.4-40-90.6 shooting splits.

This is not a post crowning either of them as the newest members of the 50-40-90 club; it’s really early in the season and is kind of an arbitrary mark to begin with. Just a few days ago, Halli was also at 50-40-90. There’s no guarantee that either Naz or KAT stay at 50-40-90 (in fact, I would be shocked if they did). But it’s pretty remarkable that not only are the only two players currently averaging 50-40-90 shooting splits both centers, but they both play for the same team.

    There probably aren’t 5 players who’s actual value is more undervalued by casual NBA fans when it comes to trades/talent compared to real life than Towns right now. NBA fans think he is absolute trash when he’s really good. It’s like because he isn’t the MVP or had some terrible performances, he has suddenly turned into complete garbage, he’s not even on people’s minds anymore as a good player, people just think he’s really bad but can have a good game now and then and maybe can be rehabilitated. They see him like James Harden or Ben Simmons.

    Dude Kevin Durant is at 51.2/49.6/89.6 on 31 ppg.

    I think we can round 89.6 to 90.

    Cmon man lmao.

    KD who just 70 ft without a miss in a row is only a few made ones away from averaging 50-49-90

    A reminder that the “50” should be 2FG% instead of FG% overall.

    Too many guards eliminating themselves from contention from high volume of three.

      They remind me of the Grit 'n Grind Grizzlies.

      But, Edwards is a better scorer than anything Memphis had those years. KAT is legit, too. Either as a 1 or 1a.

    Remember when everybody was clowning the Gobert trade based on results despite the fact that you still had a winning record with Towns missing 53 games? Pepperidge Farm remembers.

    He isnt even in his final form. Any Wolves fan can tell you that KAT kicks it up a notch after All Star Break. Im calling it now, if he keeps playing like this he should be in the MVP conversation.

    It’s pretty funny, every time I watch Kat play live he looks awful. I haven’t been watching Wolves games recently and LO he’s playing exceptionally well.

    Glad he’s figured things out.
