Randle suffered a fractured tibia in his right leg midway through the fourth quarter of the Lakers
Re: Julius Randle Injury Update
The 19-year-old Randle was injured when he collided with two Houston players under the Lakers' basket midway through the final period. He was in obvious pain as the Lakers' medical staff tended to him, eventually immobilizing his leg while Kobe Bryant gripped his hand in support.

I think we need to bring Metta back so we can really play some "smashmouth" basketball. When we had metta he was not too good guarding 1,2,3 but pretty good with opposing 4's. Still has some value I would think.

I bet he will be back in time for the playoffs this year.
Laker News: Julius Randle to have another surgery tomorrow
[QUOTE]Randle will have a screw replaced in the fifth metatarsal of his right foot, a remnant from a previous surgery after a high school injury.
The 6-foot-9 power forward from Kentucky is already out for the season after breaking his right leg on opening night in October.
The surgery will be performed at Cedars-Sinai Orthopaedic Center by Dr. David Thordarson.
Randle was drafted by the Lakers with the seventh overall pick in June.
Reports before the draft that Randle would eventually need foot surgery might have helped him fall to the Lakers.
The Lakers said they expect Randle to fully recover from both injuries.

Turns out that those draft day rumors were not that far from reality. Hope he recovers fully.

Re: Laker News: Julius Randle to have another surgery tomorrow

I agree. Whatever he has to do to be good for next season then just get it done and over with now.

These foot and leg injuries at such a young age is pretty concerning. He wasn't healthy in the beg of summer camp and he barely played before he was injured. I hope he can get his body right bc Lakers desperately need him to be 100%, esp if we miss out on a pick
Re: Laker News: Julius Randle to have another surgery tomorrow
Hopefully this situation turned out like a Blake Griffin 2.0 Where due to injury they were out all season but then return the next season as stronger players.
