Julius Randle, the star player of the New York Knicks, has been playing a crucial role for the team since he joined them. However, the future of Randle and the Knicks may not seem as bright as before. This offseason, the Knicks made many big moves to improve their roster and prepare for a championship run. Recently another situation took place where Randle saw his Knicks jersey being shutdown at the stands in MSG. This situation has sparked speculation about Randle possibly leaving the team.
Recently former NBA star Patrick Beverley on his podcast talked about Julius Randle and his recent situation. Beverley stated that how the Knicks have signed many players this offseason who operate on the same position as Randle.
Further Beverley mentioned that Randle’s time with the Knicks might come to an end soon with his jersey being shutdown. The former star also noted how the Knicks had success even without Randle on their squad.
It’s tough when you sign all those kinds of players in his position. The writing’s on the wall. When the Clippers got James Harden, I knew Paul George would be out of there. I mean, 1+1=2… In their defense, they had a lot of success without him, probably the most success the Knicks have had since he’s been on the team.
Patrick Beverley said via Pat Bev Podcast
Later in the segment, Patrick Beverley was asked where he would want to see Randle end up in the future. To the same, Pat Bev stated that he would love to see Randle with the Sacramento Kings.
In Randle’s previous season with the Knicks, he averaged 24.0 points, 9.2 rebounds, and 5.0 assists before being sidelined by injury in the second half of the season. As Beverley had mentioned the Knicks played great basketball without Randle on the team and relying on the excellence of Jalen Brunson.
Many analysts claim that the Knicks might not extend Randle’s contract. Fans anticipate seeing how the future between the Knicks and Randle will unfold. The Knicks, entering the next season with a strong team, might be one of the toughest teams in the league.
