WATCH: 3 ideal Julius Randle trade scenarios for the New York Knicks
Mar. 27, 2024 – 03:31 – A Julius Randle trade is a very real possibility for the New York Knicks, as they begin to look ahead to the offseason this summer.
Season three for Randle in New York has been a massive disappointment. It seems like an odd narrative for a player averaging 20 points, 10 rebounds, and five assists per game, but that is the sad truth. After a 2020-2021 season where the 27-year-old was showered with chants of “MVP” from the New York faithful, this season has been the polar opposite when it comes to winning.
While Randle has still logged good numbers, his three-point shot has not been as reliable, and his overall inconsistency has been a major part of the team going from a fourth seed last year, to a team that won’t even make a play-in game this season. Obviously, the Knicks dumpster fire isn’t all his fault, but as the franchise’s top star and highest paid player, most of the responsibility falls on him.
