In the coming days and weeks, the NBA world will be filled with analysis and debate about the trade. Will the Knicks be able to build a winning team around Towns? Can the Timberwolves rebuild and find success without their star center? One thing is certain, however: the trade has sent shockwaves throughout the league and will have a lasting impact on the NBA landscape.

As the Knicks look to build around Towns, they will need to surround him with a supporting cast that can complement his skills. The team will likely look to add more shooting and playmaking ability to the roster, as well as bolster their defense with the addition of a strong perimeter defender.
