Julius Randle

Julius Randle had a simple solution to his jumper not falling all game — get closer and throw it down with authority. The two-time All-Star found himself well-positioned to receive a Jalen Brunson kick-out at the foul line and allowed his forward momentum to carry him into the paint before finishing with a powerful slam over Jarrett Allen. Randle posted 11 points, eight rebounds and three assists as the New York Knicks took a 2-1 First Round series lead with a 99-79 Game 3 triumph on April 21, 2023.
