Julius Randle posts goodbye to New York after Knicks tenure ends with Karl-Anthony Towns trade
NY Post
Julius Randle said goodbye to New York with a simple message Sunday night.
“NEW YORK! THANK YOU,” Randle wrote in a post on Instagram, along with a photo of him playing at the Garden, just days after news broke of the blockbuster deal that is sending the forward out of town for star Karl-Anthony Towns.
Reports of the massive deal broke late Friday night, and the complicated trade involved sending Randle, Donte DiVincenzo, DaQuan Jeffries and a first-round draft pick to Minnesota for Towns.
The deal has not officially been completed as of Sunday, and ESPN reported the expectation is the trade would be completed “early this week.”
Randle spent the past five seasons with the Knicks, earning three NBA All-Star nods during his tenure in the Big Apple and being named the league’s Most Improved Player in 2021.
He had also been a two-time All-NBA selection as a Knick.
