Julius Randle DVOA, Advanced Stats, & Fantasy Rankings

Minnesota Timberwolves power forward Julius Randle maintained his hot hand in Game 1 against the Oklahoma City Thunder but couldn't save his squad from a 114-88 defeat. The former Knick put up a team-high 28 points on 9-for-13 shooting, tallying eight rebounds, one assist, and one steal. Randle made five triples with six attempts but also committed five turnovers in the game. While Randle has been hot offensively in the postseason, his ball-handling has been poor in recent games, with this being his fourth consecutive outing with at least four turnovers. Against a top team like the Thunder, Minnesota cannot afford any sloppiness in its game, and Randle must lead the way alongside Anthony Edwards.

The three-time All-Star shot 2-for-6 from three-point range and added eight rebounds and five assists to his line. While Randle did plenty of offensive damage against the Warriors, averaging 25.2 points per game, he must improve his ball-handling in the Western Conference Finals. He gave up the rock at least three times in four of five games, committing a total of 18 turnovers.
