The New York Knicks are facing a serious problem for the final stretch of the regular round of the 2023 NBA season, this because Julius Randle suffered an injury in the last game played against the Miami Heat that will keep him away from the planks.
Randle, who had been performing as one of the most important figures on the squad so far this season, suffered a sprained left ankle that will not allow him to finish the season and puts his participation in the first part of the playoffs in doubt. ; The good news is that the team is close to certifying its direct classification to this stage of the tournament.
Despite this, there are only two weeks left until the postseason begins, which means that he would be safely entering the games for a few days after the start of the playoffs, this as long as he is fully recovered.
Randle had been a vitally important piece for Tom Thibodeau’s team, averaging 25.1 points, 10 rebounds and 4.1 assists per game, numbers that allowed him to be chosen for the NBA All-Star Game by the fans. .
In addition to this, the New York Knicks player is one of the four players, along with Joel Embiid, Giannis Antetokounmpo and Anthony Davis, who averages at least 25 and 10 in this season of the best basketball in the world.
We will have to wait for the progress of Randle’s recovery to find out if he will be able to be part of the playoffs for the New York team.
Currently the New York Knicks are located in fifth position in the Eastern Conference of the NBA, which is why they are at nothing to reach their place in the postseason; they currently have a two and a half game lead on the Brooklyn Nets.
