Anthony Randolph went down with a sprained left ankle last Tuesday in practice, and the Knicks originally said he would be out for two weeks. But there Randolph was yesterday, going through a full practice with his teammates at the Knicks' Westchester facility. So what happened?
"That's for them older vets," Randolph said with a laugh after practice. "I'm still young, so I bounce back more quickly."
The 6-foot-11 forward will make his regular-season debut in a Knicks uniform tonight against the Magic. It has been almost 10 months since Randolph played in a game that counted after he missed the final 47 games of last season with the Warriors when he tore a ligament and fractured a bone in the same ankle Jan. 8 against the Kings.
