Randle too much to handle for Cavs as Knicks post 2nd straight win

Julius Randle reported to the New York Knicks’ training camp in great shape.

Now he‘s reaping the benefits in what is shaping up to be a career year.

The Knicks rode on their defense and Randle’s triple-double to deal the Cleveland Cavaliers their first loss of the season, 95-86, at the Rocket Mortgage Fieldhouse on Tuesday night.

Triple-double special

With Kevin Love missing the game due to a right calf strain, Randle proved to be too much to handle for the Cavaliers.

Randle played 44 minutes and produced 28 points, 12 rebounds, and 11 assists for his seventh career triple-double and first as a Knick.
