Ant Edwards gets the Herb Jones treatment where Julius will need to step up. He’s coming off a stinker vs. the Clippers where he was ineffective on 20% against a team with Zubac defending the paint and that’s top-10 in spot-ups and ranked #8 in Rim FGM over the L10 games.
Tonight should be a bounce back spot against his former team that’s lacks frontcourt defense in the Pelicans. Randle is averaging 21.4 PPG and clears 19+ points in 12 of 16 games (75% rate) against bottom-13 points in the paint defenses where he’s shooting an above-average 65.3% eFG in the paint. And the Pelicans allow the 2nd most FGM at the rim over L10 games. #PlayerProps
