Knicks fans have nothing ‘to worry about’ with Julius Randle’s braids in place
NY Post
The Knicks’ first postseason game-day in eight years has arrived, and in case any fans were worried – or superstitious – breakout star Julius Randle’s hairstyle is on point for Game 1 against the Hawks.
After little-used guard Theo Pinson assured fans Friday on social media that he would make sure Randle got his customary braids done in time for the series opener, the All-Star forward and Most Improved Player finalist allowed before Sunday’s game that braiding his hair “might be” a superstition for him after all of the success he and the Knicks enjoyed during their 41-31 regular-season finish. “Theo won’t let me slack. If it’s not a superstition for me, which it might be, it definitely is for my teammates, it definitely is for Theo,” Randle said with a laugh after the team’s morning shootaround. “So I guess Knicks fans don’t have anything to worry about, because Theo said if my hair is ever not braided, he’ll braid it himself.”
