Our view

The move to Brooklyn keeps a high-usage, build-around scorer where he thrives — we like the volume floor (19.8/6.6/4.8) and the durability (79 games). Risk is the usual: turnovers, almost no stocks, and percentages that don't lift a roster. A dependable points-rebounds-assists anchor for a punt-defense build.

Julius Randle enters 2026-27 at #97 on our board — Round 9 value in a standard 12-team draft, projected for 19.8 points, 6.6 rebounds and 4.8 assists in 31.9 minutes a night. The value is built on scoring and assists, with blocks the soft spot in the profile. He's a natural fit for punt-blocks builds — take that category out of the equation and his value climbs. Availability helps the case: we project about 68 games.
