I don't think we've seen 5% of what Julius Randle is capable of

Really excited to see him do his thing (pause) this year. I think he could work at the 3 if that J gets wet...big enough to post cats up or take em off the dribble. If his J is falling he's gonna be a problematic match up.

He's a good athlete especially if you let him out in the open court. But in stationary spots his athleticism isn't nothing to brag about. He's not a 3 but I think the Lakers got a future double double guy for the next 10-12 years in Julius.

He's nowhere near as good as Parker, Wiggins, or Embiid but he's definitely a steal at 7.

I don't think he's superstar status but he'll be a possible all star at his best.

OP is right :ohhh:

he played 14 minutes in one game this year. assuming he'd be around 28 mpg this season then he showed about 2.4% of what he could do :wow:

Half a game so....
0.5/82 = 0.00609
So he actually showed about 0.6% of what he could do

He was up there with Wiggins and Parker coming out of highschool. He remindes of a young Antoine Walker. The kid is nice.

Well seeing as we've only seen him play in the NBA for about five minutes you might be onto something.

Derrick williams was better than him


This dude Derrick Williams defies me I just don't see how he's not better than he is I'd almost be willing to wager that if the NBA had a combine for vets that he would beast in it...He may just be one of those talented dudes that never pans out.

The difference between him and Terrance Jones or Derrick Williams is he's on a franchise that has room for him to play huge minutes and develop his game. Both Jones and Williams have played behind a gang of forwards.

Unless the Lakers go HAM in free agency, Julius will be starting and his production will be needed.
