Julius Randle Looks Good In Pelicans Debut
6 years agoNew Orleans Pelicans power forward Julius Randle played 24 minutes off the bench in Wednesday's season-opening win over the Houston Rockets, scoring 25 points on 9-for-15 shooting while grabbing eight rebounds and adding three assists. Randle was 2-for-4 from deep, tying his career-high in three-point attempts. If he continues to step out onto the perimeter and hit those shots at a good clip, Randle should exceed the value that fantasy owners placed on him during draft season. He'll look to continue his stellar play on Friday against a Kings team that had one of the league's worst defensive ratings last year while also allowing the ninth-most rebounds.
