Timberwolves' Julius Randle: Adjustment to new team continues
Randle totaled 17 points (6-16 FG, 1-6 3Pt, 4-4 FT), six rebounds, six assists and one steal in 36 minutes during Sunday's 95-94 loss to the Heat.
The veteran forward continues to put up solid, if somewhat disappointing, numbers for the Timberwolves. While Randle's efficiency has gone up -- he's shooting 53.1 percent from the floor, his best mark since 2017-18, and 40.9 percent from three-point range, his best performance since 2020-21 -- his usage has gone down compared to his last few years with the Knicks, and he has yet to attempt 20 shots in a game for Minnesota. Randle's 6.7 boards a game is also on pace for a career low, as he's never finished a season below 8.0. As the third wheel on a team with Anthony Edwards and Rudy Gobert in well-defined roles, this level of production may be the new normal for Randle.

Timberwolves' Julius Randle: Strong display in win Friday
Randle totaled 22 points (8-18 FG, 3-6 3Pt, 3-4 FT), six rebounds, four assists and one block in 32 minutes during Friday's 127-102 win over the Trail Blazers.
Randle has adjusted well to the role of being the Timberwolves' second option on offense behind Anthony Edwards, and the veteran forward is getting the job done on both ends of the court so far. Through his nine starts, Randle is averaging a solid 21.6 points, 6.8 rebounds, 4.4 assists and 0.7 steals across 33.2 minutes per game. He's also scored over 20 points in four of his five outings this month.

Timberwolves' Julius Randle: Hits for 23 in Friday's win
Randle logged 23 points (8-13 FG, 2-5 3Pt, 5-5 FT), six rebounds and seven assists over 37 minutes during Friday's 119-116 victory over the Nuggets.
The former Knick has had a strong start to his Minnesota tenure. Randle has scored at least 20 points in four straight games, and in five contests to begin the season he's averaging 23.2 points, 7.2 boards, 5.4 assists and 2.4 threes while shooting 60.9 percent from the floor and 57.1 percent from beyond the arc.

Timberwolves' Julius Randle: Impressive in Tuesday's loss
Randle accumulated 20 points (7-13 FG, 3-3 3Pt, 3-4 FT), seven rebounds, seven assists and two steals in 35 minutes during Tuesday's 120-114 loss to Dallas.
The veteran forward posted his best all-around performance yet for Minnesota, scoring at least 20 points for the third straight game and recording his first steals or blocks in the young season. Randle appears to be fitting in well in the Timberwolves' frontcourt, and he's been locked in from downtown, going 10-for-16 (62.5 percent) from three-point range.

Randle took a shot to the face after attempting to block Mavericks forward Naji Marshall in transition. While Randle was shaken up from the play, he should be able to finish out Tuesday's contest without missing a significant chunk of time.

Timberwolves' Julius Randle: Stays hot in win
Randle notched 24 points (9-16 FG, 1-4 3Pt, 5-7 FT), nine rebounds and five assists in 36 minutes during Saturday's 112-101 victory over the Raptors.
After a quiet performance in his Minnesota debut, Randle has recorded back-to-back strong all-around performances. Over his last two games, Randle has totaled 57 points (22-33 FG), 14 rebounds and nine assists. Notably, Randle has yet to record a block or steal through three games.

Timberwolves' Julius Randle: Leads team with 33 points
Randle totaled 33 points (13-17 FG, 5-6 3Pt, 2-3 FT), five rebounds and four assists across 35 minutes during Thursday's 117-115 win over Sacramento.
While Randle is expected to accomplish great things with the Timberwolves, Rudy Gobert's 3/11/1 line is an interesting twist in Minnesota's frontcourt storyline. Randle lacks the finesse of Karl-Anthony Towns, but he's an absolute beast under the basket and isn't afraid to roam the perimeter to test his three-point shot. One could argue that Towns was a better fit for Gobert's bottom line, but an ideal outcome is that Randle and Gobert can share the load. Those who drafted Gobert will need to monitor his usage because Randle isn't going anywhere.
