Julius Randle is getting a big thumbs down from Knicks fans and I understand why. But here’s the thing … he was never that guy.
Randle isn’t doing himself any favors by continuing to dodge media availability, as his 4-point performance in a loss to the Pelicans saw him skip out on doing press for the seventh straight game. And that market is going to demand accountability from the current face of the franchise. However, Randle is simply not cut out for that role.
