superwinway Julius Randle, forward for the New York Knicks, says he’s not a lonely kid. Therefore, we know that it will take time to recover from ankle surgery and produce consistent performance as before. During this time, you will gradually build up confidence.
Randle had arthroscopic surgery on his left ankle last summer to repair an injury he suffered late in last season’s playoff run. Recently had the opportunity to knock out rust during the training camp continuing pre-season 2023. superwinway
Until entering the regular season, the 28-year-old forward’s performance was not up to the offensive standards he had previously achieved with the Knicks because he averaged 16.5 points, field goal accuracy 31.6% (long distance 25.9%), the worst in every aspect since wearing the uniform. ‘Sad-Blue’ season 2019-20 ( superwinway )
What has improved is his contribution to the team: 11.1 rebounds and 0.9 blocks, best for New York as well, plus another 4.9 assists.
Asked from the mouth of a one-time All-Star, he was not satisfied with the results. But when you have just recovered from an injury, everything must be done gradually.
“I had surgery four and a half months ago. It is probably the least complicated type of endoscopic surgery. But I myself was not naive to the point of thinking that when I came back I would be completely destroyed.” Opening mouths with ‘The Athletic NBA’
“I knew from the beginning that this kind of thing relies on a recovery process.”
“Thanks to guys like RJ Barrett, Jalen Brunson who stepped up and scored more points. Please wait a little longer for me to return to my perfect body. When it starts to get better, I’ll take on the spearheading job myself.”
The Knicks currently have a 4-4 record. The most average scorer is Brunson with 22.5 points, and the most accurate field goal is Barrett with 47.4%.
