Minnesota Timberwolves big man Karl-Anthony Towns was cleared for "full-contact, five-on-five basketball activities" on Tuesday.
The team said Towns, who had surgery to repair a meniscus tear in his left knee March 12, is progressing toward a return to game action.
Towns, 28, has not played since March 4, when he logged just 21 minutes in a win over the Portland Trail Blazers
