Julius Randle remembers Kobe Bryant on his third death anniversary after the game against the Boston Celtics.

In a thrilling contest between the New York Knicks and the Boston Celtics last night, Julius Randle’s outstanding play helped the Knicks win in overtime. The power forward had a solid 52% field goal percentage and finished the game with 37 points, 9 rebounds, and 2 assists.
As everyone is aware, Julius Randle was selected by the Los Angeles Lakers as the seventh overall choice in 2014. And he had the good fortune to share a locker room with Kobe Bryant. On January 26, the day of Kobe’s passing, the Knicks player decided to honor the legend.
“I played this game with a heavy heart thinking about Kobe. This is a very difficult day but he is watching us from above and he is proud of us,” Julius Randle said after the reporter asked him, “I know Kobe meant a lot to you, you thinking about him tonight.“
