    Karl-Anthony Towns had just finished overpowering the overmatched Utah Jazz, looking every bit the No. 1 overall pick the Minnesota Timberwolves made him last June.

    And as he summed up a night that included 25 points, 10 rebounds, two blocks and 12 fourth-quarter points ...

    "I played absolutely atrocious," Towns said, pointing to his three turnovers, three missed free throws and a couple of defensive miscues in the third quarter that prompted coach Sam Mitchell to pull him. "Those mistakes can cost us a game. I played terrible."

    Nevertheless, Towns' "terrible" performance was one of the biggest keys to Minnesota's 94-80 victory over the short-handed Jazz on Wednesday.
