Julius Randle has been a controversial player among Minnesota Timberwolves fans recently. Even as somebody who is generally a Randle defender, I acknowledge that he has certain downsides. However, one aspect of Randle's game that I don't think he gets enough credit for is his playmaking.
On the season, Randle is averaging a team-leading 5.9 assists and has been central to the Wolves' point guard-by-committee approach. There wasn't a game that better exemplified Randle's stellar playmaking than Monday night against the Chicago Bulls. Randle dished out 14 assists and zero turnovers en route to a 136-101 win.
