The timing was surprising because it came one month prior to the start of the season. The New York Knicks acquired power forward Karl-Anthony Towns of Edison, New Jersey from the Minnesota Timberwolves for power forward Julius Randle of Dallas, Texas, shooting guard Donte DiVincenzo of Newark, Delaware, and a first round pick in the 2025 NBA Draft. Here is the reaction from X.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Julius Randle carried the Knicks on his back when he first came here.

On July 9, 2019, Randle signed a three-year deal worth $63 million with New York. The year prior to Randle signing, the Knicks were last in the Atlantic Division with a record of 17 wins and 65 losses. In three of the last four seasons, the Knicks made the postseason, and Randle is a major reason why.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"550\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Knicks are getting Karl Anthony Towns for Randle and Donte?!?!?
