Forward Julius Randle described the conclusion of his stint with the New York Knicks as the most painful stretch of his professional life, saying it was “my darkest moment.”
Randle’s remarks, revealed in an interview published on Sept. 26, 2025, offer a rare glimpse into the emotional toll he experienced as his time in New York wound down. While he did not go into specific details about the circumstances, the 30-year-old emphasized that the closing chapter of his Knicks tenure was “truly miserable.”
The Louisiana native joined the Knicks in 2019 and twice earned All-Star honors with the franchise. His comments mark the first time he has publicly characterized his departure in such stark terms.
No timetable has been provided for Randle’s next move in the NBA.
