Julius Randle Receives Most Improved Player In Cutest Way Possible [VIDEO]
New York Knicks big man Julius Randle has achieved at least one more major accomplishment this season. Randle made the NBA All-Star team, lead the Knicks to the playoffs, and now has won the NBA's Most Improved Player Award. Randle went from a guy that just about everyone from NBA Reporters and Insiders to fans thought would be traded as part of a complete rebuild in New York to being a key piece of the future at Madison Square Garden. The coolest part of Julis Randle winning Most Improved Player was who presented him with the trophy, his four-year-old son Kyden.
Here's your feel-good moment of the day for Knicks fans everywhere.
Kyden Randle burst onto the scene when he spoke for all Knicks fans back in April after the Nets beat his dad's team 114-112.
Julius Randle's 2020-2021 numbers were truly impressive:
24.1 PPG
10.2 RPG
6.0 APG
2.3 3PG
37.6 MPG
All up from his 2019-2020 campaign:
19.5 PPG
9.7 RPG
3.1 APG
1.0 3PG
32.5 MPG
Now if Randle can lead the Knicks to at least a first-round series win over the Atlanta Hawks I'll be even happier and the future will look even brighter.
