Minnesota Timberwolves star forward Julius Randle is fresh off agreeing to a $100 million deal, and it didn’t take him long to break the bank. Within a week, he did so for his wife, Kendra, gifting the mother of his three children a luxury bag worth a whopping $297,500 on her birthday.
Julius Randle’s Wife Pens Message After Receiving $297,500 Worth of Gift
Randle came to Minnesota from New York in a deal that sent former Wolves star Karl-Anthony Towns to the Knicks last offseason. He initially had a tough time acclimating to Minnesota’s competitive spirit, but after a lot of hits and trials, tough surprises, and excruciating pain, he did hit his top form.
Randle eventually averaged 18.7 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 4.7 assists, finishing the season ranked second on the team in scoring and rebounding, while leading in assists.
His impressive performance earned him a lucrative three-year, $100m deal, and he made sure to gift his biggest supporter a luxury gift from Hermes on her 29th birthday.
“My Lil Old Shyt👸🏼. Happy Birthday Love You Mama 🖤,” Randle wrote in an Instagram post.

Randle had bought Kendra a beautiful Hermes Blanc Himalayan Kelly 25 White Crocodile bag worth $297,000. However, a different website mentioned the price of 545,000.00 AED (148,375 USD), but Kendra was nevertheless in love with it.
“Unwell..how does he even know what this is,” she wrote on her Instagram story.
Randle and Kendra are college sweethearts, and the NBA All-Star has had her back right from his college basketball days.
They met at the University of Kentucky, where he played for the Wildcats, and she was studying fashion design. It was love at first sight for the pair who met at a party, and after a few years of dating, they tied the knot in 2017. In 2019, Julius told the NY Post, “You never really plan when you’re going to get married.” He continued, “I didn’t see any point in waiting; she was the person I knew I wanted to be with.”
In addition to being her husband’s biggest supporter, Kendra has run a successful clothing brand, KALORE, for the past five years, and that’s where Randle would have figured out she would love an exclusive Himalayan Kelly bag.
Randle and Kendra share three children: sons Kyden (born in 2016) and Jaycey (born in 2021), and daughter Romi (recently born in May 2025).
The three-time NBA All-Star’s season ended with a brutal loss to the Oklahoma City Thunder in the Western Conference Semifinals, and the couple later flew to Turks and Caicos for a vacation. With its postcard-worthy beaches and laid-back atmosphere, Turks and Caicos served as the ideal destination for their downtime.
Randle is off the clock for now, embracing family͏ time far ͏from the spotlight. But it won’t be long before he gets back to practicing and puts in the work to live up to his $100m deal.
