Lakers' Julius Randle: Grabs 20 boards in double-double

Randle scored 13 points (4-13 FG, 5-8 FT) and added 20 rebounds, two assists and two steals in 31 minutes during Wednesday's 96-90 win over the Bulls.

Analysis:

After missing three games with a hip injury, Randle played in both nights of a back-to-back set Tuesday and Wednesday, and double-doubled on both nights. The 20 rebounds tied Randle's career high, and though he didn't have a big scoring night, the high volume of shot attempts was encouraging. With two other high-usage players in D'Angelo Russell (knee) and Nick Young (calf) set to miss the next couple of weeks, the Lakers' offense could run through Randle more frequently, which would send his fantasy value on the rise.
