Julius Randle Gets Close To Another Triple-Double
4 years agoNew York Knicks power forward Julius Randle nearly notched his second triple-double in three games on Tuesday, finishing a narrow defeat to Philadelphia with 19 points, 15 rebounds, and eight assists. He had a tough shooting night with a 7-for-19 record from the field. Randle gets to shine against the Joel Embiid-less Sixers again on Sunday, but he faces the Magic prior to the rematch. Orlando is allowing the fewest points in the league to opposing power forwards, and they did a decent job against Randle earlier in the season in a pair of matchups, when the Knicks star shot only 42 percent from the field. He did end up averaging a solid 23 points and 12 rebounds, but it's not a very comfortable matchup for the first-year All-Star.
