The American/Slovenian power forward can be seen shooting the basket in the video, published by Real Madrid on social networks. He is among the rest of his teammates.

The 32-year-old sustained an Achilles tendon injury against Olympiacos Piraeus last December.

In 13 Turkish Airlines EuroLeague games last season, Randolph averaged 9.3 points and 3.6 rebounds.

Pablo Laso's plan was to include Randolph in the preparation sessions in October. This was indicated a week ago at a press conference when Laso was asked about the two injured players (Randolph and Thompkins).

"They still have time for recovery, but I would like to incorporate them little by little. I would like them to enter training during October, to be in the team dynamics, but they suffered two long-term injuries and I don't know when they could come back on the court. I think Trey could play before Anthony,” said the Royal club's bench boss.
