New York Knicks’ two-time All-Star Julius Randle only learned he would participate in the 3-point contest after their last game before the All-Star break — a big road win in Atlanta Wednesday night.
Randle was a late replacement for Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons, who suffered an ankle injury earlier this week.
