This is devastating news for the New York Knicks according to reports Julius Randall the Knicks Allstar power forward has suffered a dislocation to his right shoulder due to that it’s likely he’s going to miss significant time and if that’s going to be the case the Knicks can look at a couple of different
Options that they can do to help Shore up their roster but one move that they could make is look at their g-league roster and call a player up that’s been making a lot of noise there Jacob toen we’re going to break down this report about Randall his injury and also why
Jacob toppen needs to get his opportunity now for the New York Knicks we’re going to break down this and so much more today if you’re not already subscribed to the channel go ahead and hit that subscribe button now and make sure you have notifications turned on so
You don’t miss a second of the new content and now let’s get started Julius randle’s injury here may be the chance for New York to call up Jacob toppen who’s been having a great season for the g-league team for the New York Knicks but before we get into that
I think it’s only right and fair to break down Julius randle’s injury and let you know exactly what he’s dealing with according to Adrien wowski he stated that the New York Knicks forward Julius Randall has suffered a dislocated right shoulder and the X-ray didn’t show much damage but an MRI was conducted
Late last night and we still don’t know the results yet on that MRI and what it’s going to signal for Julius Randall and the rest of his season MD and Dr Jesse Morris reported the following about Julius Randall and his injury on the appx as I read through this I’m
Going to show you exactly the injury Julius Randall suffered how he suffered it and his exact reaction after he suffered it let’s roll that as I read through this according to Dr Morris he States the following about Julius randle’s injury this has been confirmed to be an acute dislocation after he
Tries to break his fall with an outstretched arm you can see him in significant pain as he calls for the trainer Doctor Who tries to put the shoulder back in place but appears to be unsuccessful he then heads to the locker room when the shoulder dislocated the
Lab has to tear for it to be able to pop out of the socket if this is indeed a torn laum secondary to an acute shoulder dislocation then there is a decent chance he needs surgery and his season will be over let’s hope it’s mild and the labrum isn’t severely torn in that
Case he would probably miss about a month this is absolutely terrible news if you’re a New York Nick fan Julius Randall was having another phenomenal year he was looking like he was going to make another All-Star team right alongside jayen Brunson somebody who we all expect to make his first All-Star
Game and honestly this is probably going to be be the Nick’s best chance this year to get two allars in that game in Julius Randall and Jaylen Brunson but now thanks to this injury even if Randall does make the All-Star game it’s likely he may not even play with it and
That is such a robbery for this ncks team for this fan base that has been waiting that has been Desiring two All Stars on this team for the last 10 years and now finally we have it even if the fans even if the media even if it actually doesn’t happen with the voting
And Julius Randle doesn’t get the All-Star bid that he absolutely deserves I think everybody internally especially within the New York Knicks organization and the fan base will think and believe that Randall and Brunson absolutely are deserving of Allstar bids this year but seeing this injury seeing how he went
Down seeing the pain that he was in the fact that he went right back to the locker room didn’t shoot the free throws this is serious the fact that the New York Knicks Tom thibo used the word serious this is not a minor thing this is not something that
You just say Well it happens in the NBA and you look past it and you not even think about it again no this is an injury that looks significant he was in a lot of pain Couldn’t Shoot the free throws had to head back to the locker
Room clearly couldn’t pop it back into place this is significant it matters it means something and like we heard from the doctor if it’s significant and severe it’s bad enough that he could miss the rest of the season and if he misses the rest of the season you can put a
Question mark on this season for the rest of the year for the New York Knicks because let’s get it right Julius Randall alongside Jaylen Brunson are two of the most impactful players on this Knicks team you lose any one of them it puts your season in a question mark
Because those two are your driving forces on this Knicks team and if you lose any one of them because of what they mean to this Knicks team their leadership their impact it’s absolutely going to throw what you were hoping to do in the season up in the roar up in
The air because you don’t know what the rest of the season is going to throw at you now and now you have to face it without one of your Allstars in Julius Randall it’s a question mark because without Julius Randall there is no telling to see how far this New York
Knicks team can go and it’s not easy to go ahead and replace Julius Randall either he’s basically a walking double double a freight train and he’s somebody that draws a lot of double teams and passes out of them to help the Knicks move the ball and get open Shooters if
You’re missing that type of production you’re missing that type of player it’s going to be very very difficult for the New York Knicks moving forward and moving ahead and although nobody can replace Randall what he means to this team or his production the Knicks might
Be able to make some other moves to help stabilize the offense in his absence and one way to do do that is to look at your g-league roster and add a player that’s been making a lot of noise as of late and if you know me you know who I’m
Talking about Jacob toen who last night dropped 32 points on 12 of 20 shooting eight rebounds two Steals and one block now you might be saying to yourself Troy this is one performance it’s the G League anybody can score anything in the G League that’s true but it’s more than
That it’s not about his scoring it’s more so about how he’s scoring his game and the way he’s playing he’s a very good Defender very solid he block shots he gets steals he’s active on that end but not only that he can run the floor he can dunk and if you’re looking to
Increase the pace for the New York Knicks if you bring him on to this team maybe come off the bench for the New York Knicks he could give you that and then some you’re telling me if he’s dropping 32 33 points in the G League he
Can’t come to the NBA for this this Knicks team and give you 10 to 12 points Off the Bench especially if you use him for decent minutes I think he can I think he would be explosive and if you’re losing Julius Randall in my opinion what do you have to lose you’re
Not going to replace Randall you could throw everything you want at that power forward position and you’re never going to replace what Julius Randle means to this team if that’s the case if I’m the Knicks I’m not trying to what I’m trying to do is build around the players that I
Have and see how far this Knicks team can go if we do that that means I have to stabilize the offense I have to utilize Jaylen Brunson a lot more I have to make more sets that include OG and anobi because he’s going to be the secondary scorer now right behind Jaylen
Brunson and I have to make sure that other people on the team understand when Randall is down that they’re going to have to score more attack more and be more aggressive because we’re not going to have Randall picking up the slack there and doing that that means the
Other nick players are going to have to pick pick up the slack and make the necessary decisions when they have the ball in mind to be aggressive and if you have somebody like Jacob toing on your team he’s just another player that can help this Knicks team get faster
Increase their Pace oh and by the way be more aggressive because when he has that ball in his hand he is taking it to the rim he’s trying to take contact and he’s trying to finish and the Knicks need another player like that especially after Julius Randall has went down with
This injury again he’s not going to replace Randall he’s not going to give you the same impact as Randall nobody’s going to be able to do that but if you’re adding pieces like this he helps stabilize your offense which is all you can hope for in Julius Randle being out
For this Knicks team I am praying for Julius Randle I hope you guys are too I hope that this is not serious I hope he misses very little time and I hope he comes back better than ever very extremely healthy so he can help this Knicks team move forward and make more
Noise when we get to the playoffs because that’s what we need this is devastating it hurt my heart watching Julius Randle go down yesterday I never want to see any player in the NBA let alone a Knicks player go down with a significant injury I’m praying for
Julius Randall I hope he’s doing well I hope he comes out of this better than ever and I hope the Knicks don’t have to suffer in his absence but what about you guys what do you think about potentially calling up Jacob toppen and adding him to this roster
In the wake of this Julius Randall injury let me know in the comments Below guys because honestly I would love to hear from you but that’s going to do it for this episode I hope you enjoyed it and if you did go ahead and smash that

New York Knicks All-Star Power Forward Julius Randle suffered a significant injury late during the game against the Miami Heat Saturday night, quickly exiting the game because of the pain. We are still waiting on MRI results to further understand the nature and length of time Randle will likely miss. If the Knicks are going to prepare for life without Randle, all hands need to be on deck. As constructed, the Knicks still need further pieces to help fill in the gap for Julius. After this injury, the Knicks should focus on the talent they have and how to utilize them better, one of those players is Jacob Toppin, who has been lighting up the G-League. It’s time to add the other Toppin brother to this roster… Troy Mahabir breaks all of this down!

This is all on Randle, he had to 2 defenders in front, he drew their attention, he could've passed right back to Hart for the easy lay up but he decides to do that reckless ass sh*t against 2 defenders, I know he was trying to create contact but that was reckless, the smart play was to pass back to Hart.
I agree. Bring up Toppin.
I’m agreeing with you because you have a person that is in the D league for the Knicks
One man down opens the Door for Jacob Top-pin.
Randle is a turnover machine
Get melo back in a Knicks jersey to play the 4!!!
I totally agree, this is a great opportunity to finally allow the youth of the team to develop and take another step
If anything can possibly go wrong for the Knicks ; it does. Absolutely can't make it up. The franchise is cursed.
Anybody notice the opposite team's star player always get hurt when they play the Miami heat for some reason.?
Topin is a monster he shouldn't even be in the G league
Let's talk about that dirty ass play though!
Don't you all sleep on Precious. He was a 1st round pick in 2020. He averages 8 points for his career and shoots 47.3% for his career. I like what I have seen from him. With the Randle injury, it is going to be a good time for OG and Donte to be a bigger part of the offense. I also think iHart can increase his offense production. Hart and Grimes can also improve their offensive game. We know what Hart is capable of. Grimes is inconsistent but he shows flashes. He falls in love with his 3s but he can drive pretty well.
Trade for Kyle kuzman
Jacob Toppin???? We trying to win in the playoffs. G leaguer isn’t the answer.
Hope the Knicks don’t make a panic move 🎉
Jerami Grant really looking juicy rn
Dammmmmmm!!!!!
we need to get murray and Bey from atlanta
The Knicks need jtoppin and let him play some min.
Your absolutely wright lets do it
Even if it's not really torn he will miss more than a month. He'll be out for most of the regular season 😔😔😔 I really hope I'm wrong but I'm usually not 🤷🏼
We are playing very well right now. We are falling into the "get this guy, get that guy chaos". Ride it out and let's see where we can go. Bring up J-Top and we can piece i together with Precious, J-Top, OG & J-Hart in Randle's place. Others have to continue to step up. This is basketball!!! Don't complicate it with unnecessary moves…….
That Obi Toppin trade looking real good now huh?
Thibs would never give Toppin much in the way of minutes even if he was the hottest ticket this side of East Jesus
Hoping for a speedy recovery for Jules….I like the idea of Jacob Toppin stepping in.
JR isnt going to miss significant time. Quit the drams. If its a dislocstion, reports has it that he could miss at most 11 games and will be backafter the AS break. Significant implies months
Also julius randle is strong and a physical beast. Im sure randle will be back in no time
Adding J Toppins could to the roster might be surprising, something the management should pursue…..
Free toppin that's a fact 💥💥💥💥💥
I think they will start precious achuiwa and possibly bring up Jacob toppin as a third string pf and have Josh Hart play the backup PF in a 9 man rotation
I agree with you Troy but knowing Thibs as I believe you do we know he's going to want a veteran he has little faith and trust in rookies no matter how good they look in G league or during practice sessions but I'm on with every thing you pointed out 🏀🙏
🔥🔥i say give him a xhanxe Before we do something else.. As we should give our system a xhanxe😈🔥🔥
You YouTuber are flip flopping. If Julius play bad one game y'all ready to trade him, if he plays good he's the best player. There is no faith, no confidence and no trust in the process. I always think the Knicks should keep Julius and only add I more star. They need a star shooting guard and they'll we in the final.
Yes Sir!
He should have been on the floor. Play him.
Knicks are done without Randle
Please don't be a tear
What do we have to lose? Why not give Toppin an opportunity?
It's gonna be Brunson, Divincenzo, Hart, Annuby, Simms. I definitely see Toppin getting the call and coming off the bench.
Thibs won't play him
Get boogie cousins for spot minutes
I agree, call up Toppin and let him get acclimated to playing with the 2nd unit! Move Precious to 1st unit in Julius absence. We got IHart and Sims the back up 5. Now P can show out at PF.
How about Derozan, he can play the 3 & move OG to the 4. And when Randle comes back Derozan can either move to the 2 or lead the 2nd unit. But what/who do have to give up
Anything to help the team let's do it
