New York Knicks forward Julius Randle’s comeback season won’t be possible without hitting the 3-ball at a respectable level. And now, his growth into a volume three-pointer on his way to his second All-Star berth this season had been rewarded with a spot at the 3-point shooting contest.

Randle will replace Portland Trail Blazers guard Anfernee Simons, who suffered an ankle injury this week.
