Overall struggling since the start of the season, Julius Randle will therefore have waited until the evening of his 29th birthday to sign his best game. In a high-stakes meeting, since the Knicks had to explode the Hornets to hope to win a “wild card” for the quarter-finals, the All-Star interior signed a big double “double-double” with 25 points, 20 rebounds, 5 passes and 2 interceptions! He sets his career high in rebounds.
A real breath of fresh air for him, especially as the Knicks qualify for the rest of the “In-Season Tournament”. Which means that the Knicks are in the running to get the nice bonus of $500,000 per player.
A real financial carrot
“From a financial standpoint, $500,000 is a lot for anyone. That’s a lot of money “ recalls Julius Randle. “It doesn’t matter what people say about it, but for some people, who don’t earn a lot, it’s very important. We want to win this competition for them. They put a lot of effort into it. »
As the Knicks had to win by the largest margin to beat the Cavaliers and the Nets at point-average, Tom Thibodeau left his stars on the field until the end!
“I’m sure you journalists will find something to complain about.” the Knicks coach laughs. “Sometimes they play too much. Sometimes they don’t play enough. The only thing I can tell you is that every time, you find that my sharing of playing time is not good! »
