Game 2 may have been the first game of the series for the New York Knicks, but it was also the first game played by fullback Julius Randle after missing Sunday’s opener with a sprained left ankle.
Julius Randle finally gave his teammates credit for the win.
“I told the guys from the start, you know, it’s going to be a battle,” Randle said. “You know, no matter what, it’s going to be a battle. And shout out to the boys. Everyone has come forward and done their part.”
In his second leg, Julius Randle posted a stellar stat of 25 points, 12 rebounds and 8 assists while shooting 44.4% from the field.
