“I couldn’t feel guilty, because this was the position I was in. I had to be both mother and father,” said Carolyn Kyles, Julius Randle’s mother, during an interview back in 2014. With his father nowhere in sight, it was up to Kyles to raise her son. Raise him to not only become a responsible human being but also an athlete. Given the fame she found as a college basketball player, the ball game was what she introduced to him from an early age. Today, due to the ‘tough’ lessons he received from his mother, Julius Randle stands proud as an NBA player with over a decade-long league experience, 3x NBA All-Star honors, along with a Second-Team and a Third-Team honor!
Over the years, Randle has mentioned his talented mother from time to time. Other than that, however, he has also divulged only specific information about his family, not going too deep into his ancestry or roots. Therefore, it is now up to us to find out the truth about the 30-year-old.

Being born and brought up in Dallas, Texas, Julius Randle holds an American Nationality. There are no reported sources that provide an indication of his ethnicity. However, Wikipedia has listed Randle on its list of ‘African-American basketball players.’
According to reports, Randle was born in 1994 to Matthew Randle and Carolyn Kyles. The couple also had a daughter together named Courtney. However, that is all that the world knows about Matthew Randle since he wasn’t present to raise his children. Therefore, the full responsibility fell upon Carolyn. While she did her best to provide for her two children, she took an extra responsibility to train them in basketball.
Carolyn Kyles had pursued basketball from an early stage. The efforts she put in during her high school tenure allowed her to take her talents to the University of Texas. She played 27 games over the course of the 1984-85 season. During the same, she averaged 6.5 points, 6.3 rebounds, and 0.6 assists. She recorded a total of 77-194 field goals and 22-44 free throws. While she couldn’t take her talents any further, Kyles may have wanted her son to adopt a destiny by taking up the ball game. Being a former basketball player, she ensured that the then-young Julius Randle would train under a strict regime.
“I would push him around. He’d fall down and hop up all mad. I’d throw hook shots on him, and it would just kill him,” Carolyn recalled. “I couldn’t feel guilty, because this was the position I was in.”
Growing up, Julius Randle remembered his mother as the last person who bullied him on a basketball court. According to reports, the future NBA player was still a toddler when she first put a ball in his hand, and he slept with it every night. Later, attempts would be made for that same ball to be taken away, both by his mother and his sister.
Did Julius Randle's mother's tough love shape him into the NBA star he is today?
Debate
“I’d be so mad, I’d want to fight my sister,” said Randle when remembering the games where he was double-teamed. “They were just bigger and stronger than us, but it definitely put a competitive spirit in us.”

The impact that his mother had on his life is something that Randle does not choose to forget easily. If he wears the No. 30 on his jersey, it is because it is the number that his mother wore during her college tenure.
The lessons he learned have allowed Julius Randle to excel in the NBA. Unfortunately, he has yet to make a prominent part on the international stage by representing his country. The only way Randle got close to being a Team USA player was when he joined the 2016 US Select Team. The squad practiced against the United States men’s national team, comprising Kevin Durant, Jimmy Butler, etc, as they looked to ready themselves for the 2016 Rio Olympics. Back in 2021, the Team USA squad was in need of two replacement players, who would participate in the Tokyo Olympics. According to the New York Post, Julius Randle wasn’t even made an offer!
Despite the snub on the international level, Julius Randle remains a prominent name in the NBA world. If there are two people who he may believe have helped him get to this point, they may be his mother and God.

As highlighted by the Baptist Press, Julius Randle gives the impression of being a Christian. In fact, Jack Graham, the pastor of Prestonwood Baptist Church back in 2014, was impressed enough by the young player that he could state, “Julius is a great young man who is solid in his faith. He and his mother, Carolyn, have an incredible bond, and it is wonderful to see how he is devoted to her.”
According to reports, during his days at the University of Kentucky, the power forward visited the team chapel before every home game. As Randle explained, “That’s just something that’s important to me that I spend time hearing God’s Word before I go out and play.” Prior to that, Randle participated in a video interview at the age of 15. During the same, he referred to God as “my everything.” On top of that, Randle appreciated that his PCA coach also took his religious beliefs into consideration, stating, “He keeps us into the Bible and into the word constantly.”

Faith, and a mother’s love, gave Julius Randle an advantage in his journey of growing up and making a name for himself. As the Minnesota Timberwolves continue to progress through the ongoing regular season, it remains to be seen whether Julius Randle’s life story will finally also have a championship title written somewhere, within the near future.

THE Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) in separate advisories warned the public against the investment-taking activities of six entities that are not registered as a corporation or a partnership.
The commission identified them as PPG Investment Group, Livewell Multi-Ventures, BlackRock, Perfx Solution Corp., Trading Basket, and Flipkart. All are not authorized to solicit investments from the public.
PPG Investment, which also operates as Conamor Shop, was found to be engaging in investment-taking activities including borrowing capital from investors to buy beauty products. These products are said to be sold to consumers with investors profiting from the sales.
PPG Investment is not registered with the commission and operates without the necessary license, the regulator said.
Meanwhile, Livewell Multi-Ventures entices the public to invest in its advertisements, trading, agriculture, manufacturing and logistics operations.
According to the SEC, the entity offers three plans — Tester Plan, Home Starter, and Eagle Plan, at P500, P5,000 and P50,000, respectively. Investors are promised a fixed return income of 3% for 60 days or a total of 180% in two months.
In another advisory, the SEC warned the public against BlackRock, which it found to have been recruiting investors with a promised earning from “crude oil energy.”
BlackRock offers five types of investment plans that cost from P100 to P5,000 for a promised daily income as high as 5.4% and as low as 1.5%.
The entity shares the same name as a multinational investment company.
According to the regulator, the real BlackRock, Inc. believes that what the local entity offers is an active scam.
Separately, the commission found out that Trading Cartel, an entity which the commission previously issued an advisory against, is operating as Perfx Solution and Trading Basket or Trading Philippines.
All three entities, according to the SEC, are under Jeiel Jephone Ofreneo Canlas, who also goes by the name Japhon Canlas.
Meanwhile, Flipkart is said to have been offering an “advance fee” scheme, which is a form of fraud wherein investors are promised a large sum of money in exchange for a small up-front payment.
“If the victim makes the payment, the fraudster either asks for further fees from the victim or they simply disappear after obtaining the amount,” the regulator said.
The SEC told the public not to enter into such arrangements and advised them to report advance fee frauds or scams to the National Bureau of Investigation or the Philippine National Police’s Anti-Cybercrime Group. — Justine Irish D. Tabile

US President-elect Donald Trump has upended bipartisan efforts to avert a government shutdown, after he rejected a stopgap bill and pressed Republican lawmakers to either renegotiate it or risk their political careers. The new bill would have kept federal funding running at the current level until March after the current short-term spending plan expires on Friday night. Plus, the ongoing political crisis in Georgia is taking a toll on its economy, especially tourism.

A religious liberty advocacy organization awarded a group of residents in a Texas town this week for pushing back against a resident who attempted to have a Nativity scene outside their local courthouse removed.
The Becket Fund for Religious Liberty announced Tuesday that the citizens of Sweetwater were the recipients of its inaugural “Tiny Tim Toast” award for showing up in droves to express their opposition to taking down the Nativity scene outside the Nolan County Courthouse.
Sweetwater is a town of approximately 10,000 people about 40 miles west of Abilene.
Last week, there was standing room only when the Nolan County Commissioners Court held a public forum regarding a call from Carolyn Anne Frawley to take down the Nativity, according to CBS affiliate KTAB.
Frawley penned a letter to the editor of the local newspaper, the Sweetwater Reporter, expressing her opposition to the Nativity display on government property, citing the separation of church and state.
Faraway notably left “Christian” uncapitalized in her letter, despite capitalizing “Jewish,” “Muslim,” “atheist” and “freethinkers.”
“Not all residents of Nolan County are of one religion,” Faraway wrote in part. “There are people who are Jewish and maybe even Muslim and of course Atheist. Yes, we do exist even though many christians choose to ignore or use intimidation to keep Freethinkers whispering instead of speaking out.”
“The Obvious christian law display must be removed from our public property. The Nolan County Courthouse is a representative and place for government business for ALL Nolan County residents, not just christians,” she added.
Faraway also attended the meeting on Dec. 9, but was the only one who spoke out in opposition to the display, according to CBS affiliate KTXS.
“The religious display should be removed from the Nolan County courthouse lawn,” Frawley said. “It is a taxpayer-supported public building where county and city business is conducted. It is not a church and the display is an over-Christian display.”
KTXS noted that eight other people spoke in support of the Nativity display, and that authorities took no action on the issue, which allowed the display to remain outside the courthouse.
Mark Rienzi, who serves as president and CEO of Becket, praised the solidarity of Sweetwater residents who showed up in support of their Nativity scene.
“When the humbug spirit tried to snuff out Sweetwater’s cherished Nativity scene, the locals stood their ground with unshakable resolve,” Rienzi said in a statement provided to The Christian Post. “God bless them for the courage they showed in the face of adversity — it should be an inspiration to all those who wish to keep the Christmas and Hanukkah season sacred.”
The “Tiny Tim Toast” award — named after the boy in Charles Dickens’ A Christmas Carol — took the place of Becket’s annual “Ebenezer Award,” which for 23 years highlighted “the most outrageous offenders of the holidays,” according to its website.
This year, the group decided instead to highlight “an individual or group who inspires hope and perseverance in the face of adversity during the Christmas and Hanukkah season.”
“Every Christmas and Hanukkah season, there are some bureaucrats and activists who seek to shut out the lights on religious displays and expression,” Rienzi said. “This year, Becket is happy to raise a hearty toast to all those who stood firm against these efforts, unwavering in defending faith’s rightful place in the public square. Here’s to you, the citizens of Sweetwater, Texas, for keeping the faith.”
According to Becket’s 2024 Religious Freedom Index, 62% of Americans believe that people of faith are crucial to solving the problems facing the United States.
