Julius Randle has been in the league for more than a decade. He was selected by the Los Angeles Lakers with the seventh pick of the 2014 NBA draft. He also played for the New Orleans Pelicans, the New York Knicks, and is currently with the Minnesota Timberwolves.

Over the course of his career, he’s been very effective at driving to the basket, carrying a heavy workload for his team, and using his size to his advantage. Speaking of size, some have wondered just how much taller Julius is than his wife.

Kendra Randle is well-known by fans as she is a regular at her husband’s games, where many have noticed their significant height difference. Whether it’s at those games, during charity events, or in social media photos, Julius always appears to tower over Kendra even when she’s in heels. Now, here’s the answer to how much taller he is, plus a few other things about the athlete‘s life off the court.

Julius and Kendra are college sweethearts, as they met and began dating when they were both students at the University of Kentucky. They got engaged in 2016 and tied the knot the following year.

In an interview with the New York Post, Julius talked about knowing he wanted to marry Kendra even though they were young, in their early 20s at the time, explaining, “You never really plan when you’re going to get married. It was more about the individual. My wife was the perfect individual for me. I didn’t see any point in waiting. She was the person I knew I wanted to be with–young or not.”

Today, they have three children together.

As for their height difference, Julius stands at 6 feet 9 inches tall, while Kendra is just 5 foot 1.
