Knicks’ Julius Randle wins Most Improved Player award
NY Post
The Knicks now need Julius Randle to be their most improved player from their opening loss to Game 2 against the Hawks.
The first-time All-Star power forward was named the league’s Most Improved Player on Tuesday night, capping a breakthrough regular season in fronting the Knicks to their first postseason appearance since 2013. “I’ll take it. For me, it’s definitely an honor, just because of how I view the game. … I enjoy the process of getting better,” Randle said on the TNT pregame show. “If you look at the trajectory of my career, every year I’ve taken steps forward to improve my game. And that’s really what I’m most proud of. … I never want to feel like I’m standing in the same spot or not getting better. So I think this award really embodies who I am as a person, as a player.”
SAN DIEGO — As you may have seen elsewhere in this newspaper (and also if you haven’t deleted me yet from your social media), I have a book coming out Tuesday called “The Bosses of The Bronx.” Much of it details the 37 years’ worth of antics, winning, losing, winning again and overall mania of George Steinbrenner’s time with the Yankees.

Cade Cunningham, almost inarguably the best player in the East this season, is likely out for the remainder of the regular season. That’s the word out of Detroit following the depressing news that Cunningham punctured a lung when he took a knee to his side Tuesday from Washington’s Tre Johnson while chasing a loose ball.

Wednesday was another positive day at Yankees camp. For the first time since March 6, 2025 — an outing in which he knew “something wasn’t right,” which began a weeks-long saga that ended on the operating table for Tommy John surgery — Gerrit Cole was back on a mound and facing hitters in game action.
