Julius Randle entered the game averaging 23.2 points and 11.8 rebounds per game for the Knicks, but was held at 11 points and five rebounds and was a non-factor for much of the night.
“Julius is getting a double team and a triple team right now with his high post, trying to get the ball out of his hands and we can do it,” said Knicks manager Tom Thibodeaux. “We have to have good spacing, and right now we’re hesitating a bit and I don’t want them to.”
