REPORT: Knicks have interest in free agent big man Julius Randle

The Knicks are no longer locks to sign two superstars and suddenly be a competitor next season, but the front office must still fill out the roster and is reportedly considering a run at Julius Randle.

Randle, 24-years-young and coming off the best season of his career thus far, has officially decided not to opt in with the New Orleans Pelicans, who just traded Anthony Davis for a bunch of his former Los Angeles Lakers teammates plus a bundle of draft picks. Instead, Randle will enter unrestricted free agency in two weeks, meaning the Knicks and every other NBA team will have a shot to nab the 6’9”, 250-pound monster.
