Karl-Anthony Towns may have enjoyed a record-setting campaign with the Minnesota Timberwolves, but that still wasn't enough to earn him a spot on one of the three All-NBA teams.
The 21-year-old center didn't hide his disappointment regarding the apparent snub, sharing his displeasure on social media shortly after the announcement.

Suns shooting guard Devin Booker tweeted out his support for his former Kentucky Wildcat teammate, believing Towns was more than deserving of an All-NBA nod.
