Julius Randle Doesn't Rule Out Surgery
9 months agoNew York Knicks forward Julius Randle (shoulder) reported he's "doing everything he can" to return to the floor this season. Unfortunately, he didn't rule out surgery. The 29-year-old has been out of the lineup for nearly a month because of a shoulder injury. Although the Knicks remain optimistic regarding a potential return, fantasy managers should acknowledge the chance he may not be back for the rest of the 2023-24 campaign. Randle had averaged 24.0 points, 9.2 rebounds, and 5.0 assists in 46 games before going down, so replacing that kind of production won't be easy. However, Precious Achiuwa and Isaiah Hartenstein (Achilles) should continue to benefit until Randle is back in the lineup.
