"When we heard Minnesota, it was pretty shocking," she said in a video posted to her TikTok account. "Although we were so ready to leave New York. Living in a condo with two kids is so hard."

Kendra also noted that a move to the Midwest or another part of the U.S. was already under consideration, citing the Randle family's openness to a different lifestyle.

"It was a great experience, but we were already looking to move outside of the city," she explained. "It was just getting so hard and overwhelming for us because my husband's from Texas, and I'm from Kentucky, and that's just not how we grew up."

I thought they lived in Westchester?
They sell the house? "Living in a condo with two kids is so hard."

Im cool with it all but she either not happy about the trade so she doing the "Well, we were thinking of leaving anyway" or its really her being transparent that knicks and randle were not going to go much further together and she understood there was a big change coming. These guys don' have normal jobs or normal lives. She now has to find a big rental and deal with the coming winter and get her son into anew school. Its part of the life they choose.

They have a Four Seasons in Minny, so they have some nice Condos. As someone who has rented or owned a house for the last 20 years, it is an adjustment. So is winter in Minnesota. Its going to be weird living in an apt again.

Randle’s 20-21 (I think) season was special. It was ****ing special. I honestly think that season was better anything Melo gave us and I’m a Melo fanboy. I just bought his rookie card so for real no shade

That said, it was time to move on. Randle kinda nailed it in his Minny intro presser, he wanted to go somewhere where he felt wanted. He didn’t appreciate the tough love from the fan base. I never forgave Randle for the thumbs down thing truly. It was always rumored we’d trade him. And we had our greatest postseason in a while without him, with legitimate questions about fit moving forward

Thank you Julius. Your MIP season was a thing of beauty. I am a massive fan of your game as that combination of strength, size, and playmaking is uncommon. I have a tendency to boo guys once they leave (and **** you too, Janis) but not this time. Julius deserves his roses

I took Randle's comment of feeling wanted as a shot at Knicks brass. Its no secret that the Knicks have wanted Towns in the orange and blue for years and more than likely it would take Randle's contract to get him. Also, I'm pretty sure Randle and his team knew for some time that the Knicks didn't want to extend Randle, especially if he wasn't taking a discount.

We will see if Minny wants Randle or if they just wanted his contract by the trade deadline....

I'm going to root hard for Minnesota, even though I really dislike Antman. Would love to see us and the Wolves in the Finals!
