Posted May 16, 2011
Julius Randle knows that this will sound weird and bizarre and maybe even slightly pompous. He’s OK with the perception. “Because that’s all it is,” said Randle, a sophomore forward at Prestonwood Christian (Plano, Texas). “I get it. It’s hard for people to relate, but I know how I mean it. And I do mean it.” Randle’s crowning achievement -- being named the top ranked player in the ESPNU Terrific 25 -- is the one thing that gives him the most unrest.
