Is Julius Randle's move to the Timberwolves the fresh start he desperately needed?

The Minnesota Timberwolves were on a roll at Target Center in Monday’s game against the Hornets. Julius Randle & Co. dominated the game from the very first minute. Well, the situation didn’t change till the end. Meanwhile, the Randle family in courtside caught the audience’s attention. His wife, Kendra, and the two boys braced the seats to support the 3x NBA All-Star who was just into his seventh game for the Wolves.

But, it was Kendra’s handbag that turned some heads. The fashion diva donned what looked like a fancy black puffer jacket, beige trousers, and iconic Converse shoes. Flaunting her blonde locks, Julius Randle’s lady love’s handbag might have stolen the show. Flexing her red Hermes Birkins handbag, she completed her fashion statement. Meanwhile, Kendra shared her little bag on her Instagram Story. The luxury brand worth $200 billion has always been a first choice for many when choosing bags.

Randle was reportedly uncertain about his future at the New York Knicks and skeptical before the blockbuster move from Knicks to the Wolves, which ended his five-year stint with the former side. Currently, he’s signed a new contract alongside Donte DiVincenzo. Brian Windhorst of ESPN reported that Julius Randle and the Knicks have not made progress on a contract extension. Randle is uncertain about his role in the team’s new core.

“Meanwhile, there had been no progress on contract extension talks over the summer with Randle, who was likely headed toward free agency in 2025,” Windhorst wrote. “Randle, an All-Star each of the past two seasons, had seen the franchise totally change around him over the past nine months, and he wasn’t sure where exactly he’d fit with a team built around Jalen Brunson and former Villanova teammates. Randle knew he would likely be playing a ton of rugged minutes out of position at center in what was shaping up to be a contract year.”
