Back-to-back No. 1 picks Andrew Wiggins and Karl-Anthony Towns should combine to be a fantastic dynamic duo. Considering their respective skillsets, they could potentially be one of the more unique one-two punch pairings this season.

Both can shoot and both are excellent defenders. Plus, who won’t tune in for the Andrew Wiggins dunk contest audition tour? Count me in! I didn’t even mention the potential Zach LaVine highlights. No, they probably won’t be good this season, but I don’t care because they’ll be super exciting.
