New York Knicks power forward Julius Randle has been ruled out of the match against the Charlotte Hornets. The match is set to take place on Monday at the Spectrum Center.
As per the latest report, the Knicks have suffered a massive blow as their forward Randle has been ruled out of the competition after suffering a shoulder injury.
It will be interesting to see how the players will perform in the upcoming fixture considering they are on a six-match winning streak. In their previous outing, the Knicks managed to defeat the Miami Heat with a score of 125-109. That defeat kept the side in the third position in the Atlantic standings with 29 wins and 17 defeats.
In Randle’s absence, the onus will be on Jalen Brunson who is currently leading the points per game chart for the Knicks as he is scoring 26.6 points per game to go with the help of 3.9 rebounds and 6.5 assists per game.
Randle is having an impressive season where he is averaging 24 points per game to go with 9.2 rebounds and five assists. In the previous game against the Heat, the Dallas-born ended up registering 19 points for the winning team to go with nine rebounds and three assists.
