MINNEAPOLIS — Minnesota Timberwolves forward Julius Randle will be sidelined at least through the All-Star break with a strained right groin he suffered last week. The Timberwolves announced before their game against Chicago that Randle will be re-evaluated in two weeks. He had an MRI that revealed a strain of his right adductor muscle. That's part of the groin. The diagnosis was confirmed by a second opinion from a specialist. Randle was hurt during Minnesota's game at Utah last Thursday. This assessment means he'll miss at least eight games.
