The New York Knicks could target a surprise guard having the best season of his NBA career based on new trade rumors before the deadline.

The coaching transition from Tom Thibodeau to Brown seems to have affected Towns more than any other player. His stats have fallen to 20.5 PPG and 11.4 RPG and his shooting numbers (46.6% from the field and 36.5% from three-point range) are the worst of his career.

Almost a year and a half after moving to the New York Knicks, Karl-Anthony Towns could be on his way out of the Big Apple.

Towns fouled out in just 16 minutes in his last game on Saturday against the Philadelphia 76ers, although the Knicks still emerged with a victory. While it was the team's second win in a row, it is also just 4-9 in the last 13 games and could use a shake up by the deadline.
