Randle had just hit a game-winning 3-pointer that lifted the Timberwolves to a 130-127 victory over the Phoenix Suns Sunday afternoon in Minneapolis. It was his game, and his moment — Randle's first signature performance in Minnesota.

During Julius Randle ’s five seasons in New York, his son Kyden became almost as big a star as his father. He was a fixture at Madison Square Garden, basking in the glow created by Dad’s emergence as an All-NBA level performer.

After trailing from the first basket to the final 69 ticks, Minnesota defeated a Phoenix team that lacked key players but had Devin Booker, who scored 44 points.
