Fantasy Impact
Randle suffered a groin injury during Thursday's win over the Jazz. The team has yet to establish a clear timetable for his recovery, but he has already been ruled out for Saturday night's game. Naz Reid and Rob Dillingham will both see more work until the veteran is back in the lineup for Minnesota.
Julius Randle left Thursday's game early against the Jazz due to a groin injury.
Fantasy Impact
Randle suffered the injury in the second quarter and did not return. If he misses any time, Naz Reid would be the biggest beneficiary for fantasy managers.
Julius Randle recorded 20 points (7-of-17 FGs), eight rebounds, two assists, one steal, three 3-pointers, and five turnovers in Monday’s game against the Hawks.
Fantasy Impact
Randle’s shooting efficiency remains a concern, but he continues to provide decent value in points and rebounds. His free throw shooting has been a bright spot, as he’s hitting 92.3% (12-of-13) from the line over his last three games, contributing to his top-75 value in 9-cat formats this past week. However, his turnover rate and lack of standout contributions in other categories make him a better fit for points leagues. Randle will look to build on this performance in New York’s next matchup.
Julius Randle scored 21 points (9-20 FG, 1-6 3PT, 2-2 FT) to go with seven rebounds, seven assists, and two steals in Saturday's 133-104 win over the Denver Nuggets.
Fantasy Impact
Randle wasn't fantastic from an efficiency perspective on Saturday, but overall, he was an effective contributor for the Timberwolves. He was strong in several different facets of the game, which led to a nice fantasy output for him as well. He will continue to be a good fantasy option at his position, but his upside is capped by being the second or third option in Minnesota's rotation.
