Former Knicks Star Julius Randle Welcomes Third Child

Romi is the latest addition to the Randle family, who received a sizable following in New York during Julius' five-seasons with the Knicks. The antics of Kyden were particularly well-received, as his animated reactions to his father's activities provided in-season comedy.

Romi's arrival is the latest bit of good news in a downright sterling week for the Randles: earlier this week, Julius helped the Timberwolves earn an upset victory over the Los Angeles Lakers, his original NBA employers, in the Western Conference quarterfinal round. It was Randle's first bit of postseason action in nearly two years after he was forced to miss last year's tournament with the Knicks due to a shoulder injury that ended his last Manhattan tour prematurely.

Randle, of course, was one of the headlining exports of the trade that brought Karl-Anthony Towns to New York, as he and Donte DiVincenzo were sent north shortly before training camps opened. Despite a rollercoaster season, Minnesota secured the sixth and final automatic playoff spot on the Western bracket and dispatched a Laker group led by Luka Doncic and LeBron James in five showings.

With its first-round win secured, Minnesota is currently awaiting the winner of the quarterfinal series between the Golden State Warriors and Houston Rockets in part two.
