But there is hope that Randle is as driven as ever and is ready to prove the doubters and the fans that he can return to form. Again, we have to take social media posts with a grain of salt since they are often just highlights of what the user wants the public to see. He’s also posted stories and reels highlighting the work he has been putting in. The second was a post dedicated to the first responders in commemoration of September, 11th that sees him spending time at a New York City fire department with a few of his teammates.

More importantly, fans are hoping that this is a sign that he is mentally ready to put last year behind him. Hopefully this means Randle is back in the lab and putting in the work to make sure he’s able to do whatever it takes to get the Knicks back in the playoffs.
But it’s also hard to completely ignore Randle’s off-season social media blitz following his long hiatus.

It wasn’t a surprise, then, to see Randle go dark on social media and stay quiet after his season ended early in April. Between his incredibly disappointing on-court performance, the Knicks underachieving all season long, and the infamous thumbs-down incident at the Garden, it would be an understatement to say that the 2021-22 season was not a good one for Julius Randle.
