Minnesota Timberwolves rookie phenom Karl-Anthony Towns put his defender on a poster with a monster dunk Monday night against the New Orleans Pelicans.

Towns, the first overall pick in the 2015 NBA draft, faked a handoff to Timberwolves point guard Ricky Rubio and spun off of his defender as he slashed to the basket. (RELATED: NBA Player Gets Posterized By HUGE Dunk [VIDEO])
