The New York Knicks first big move this summer was not adding Kevin Durant, but Julius Randle, who signed a three-year, $63 million at the start of free agency. He met with the Knicks in Los Angeles near the start of free agency, targeting him when Kevin Durant chose the other New York team.

In 2018-19, Randle averaged 21.4 points 8.7 rebounds and 3.1 assists. He also took a big step forward shooting 34.
