At a Glance

- Despite an odd beginning to his career where he was taken first overall only to become a bench big and then spend three years in the wilderness post-contraction playing less than 10 mpg in about 80 games total for three teams, he rebounded to become one of the greatest big men in TMBSL 5.0 history
- One of the most decorated players in TMBSL history, both in championships and individual awards
- An offensive dynamo, Randolph in his prime was the greatest offensive Power Forward in TMBSL and an underrated defender who made 6 all-Defense teams; he consistently clocked 25+ points per game and 12 rebounds per with insane efficiency numbers, respectable defensive counting stats, and good passing and turnover numbers
- One of only 6 players all-time to eclipse 200 win shares, finishing 4th overall (for now until Kyrie passes him this season) with 205.1 career win shares
- One of only 11 players ever to exceed .250 WS/48 in a career, finishing 7th all-time at .264 (with potential to move up the list if Tim Duncan dips down below him)
- Z-Bo aged like a fine wine and remained a force in the twilight of his great career, logging the 6th best WS/48 total in the last three years of his career at .271 (only 7 players were able to exceed .250 over that time period)
- Owns 3 of the top 22 individual win share seasons of all-time and one of only 15 players all-time with a single season at 18 total win shares or higher
- Owns 6 of the top 50 FG% seasons in TMBSL history
- Owns 4 of the top 50 rebounding seasons in TMBSL history
- 4th all-time in field goal percentage, 6th all-time in rebounds, 17th all-time in free throws made (7th in attempts), 9th all-time in pts/tsa, 27th all-time in field goals made (41st in attempts), 27th all-time in points scored, and 34th all-time in minutes played
