Knicks' Julius Randle: Still practicing, limited contact

Randle (shoulder) continues ramping up in "controlled contact situations" but has not progressed to any scrimmaging as of Tuesday, Tim Bontemps of ESPN.com reports.

Randle's timeline for returning from a dislocated shoulder is difficult to evaluate given the re-injury risk of destabilized shoulders and the muscle re-strengthening needed. Coach Tom Thibodeau did not disclose an estimation for Randle ascending to 5-on-5 action, so he remains week-to-week.
