Julius Randle's injury doesn't appear to be the devastating blow the Knicks feared.
A source confirmed to the Post's Stefan Bondy that Randle's right shoulder dislocation will likely keep him out for several weeks, but not months.
However, the source added that the timeline is “not yet conclusive” as further tests have taken place since his first MRI scan.
ESPN and The Athletic first reported that Randle is expected to be out for weeks, not months.
Randle went down with 4:27 left in the fourth quarter of the Knicks' win over the Heat on Saturday and injured himself while reaching out his right arm to brace himself during a heavy fall on the way to the basket.
Randle immediately grabbed his right shoulder and ran toward the locker room.
