G D'Angelo Russell (Unanimous 1st Team All-American, All-Star, Los Angeles Lakers)

Where ever he finally lands, GS or otherwise, it’s been great to see him grow. I was concerned that his video mistake was going to cost him, but it appears he has kept refining this craft and not let that define him. Nice contract, DR!

D'Angelo Russell And Devin Booker Went To A Paint And Sip And Painted Masterpieces (They Are Butts, The Paintings Are Giant Asses In Thongs)

To the after photo. Some people go to these events and paint trees and flowers or your house. Nope. Devin Booker and D’Angelo Russell are here to paint giant butts in thongs. That’s what makes it a masterpiece. I mean, shit, we’re seeing terrible art going for hundreds of millions of dollars. The personalized DR thong butt? That’s gotta be worth a million.

The even better part is how proud they are. Look at them posing with their wine. They know they nailed the painting. They know they were the favorites in the class. I need to know where they are going to hang these.

D'Angelo Russell scores 52 points for Warriors, posts stat line not even Stephen Curry has ever matched

You have to go back to Rick Barry, in 1978, to find the last Warrior to put up a line like Russell did Friday night




D'Angelo Russell went bonkers Friday night. It came in an overtime loss at Minnesota, but there are going to be a lot of losses for the Warriors this season. There almost certainly will not, however, be another stat line like the one posted by Russell, who hung a career-hight 52 points on the Wolves to go with nine rebounds, five assists, three steals and two blocks.

He took 37 shots.

He made seven 3-pointers.

He ran pick and roll over, and over, and over again.

D’Angelo Russell used to take long way back to Lakers bench to avoid shaking Byron Scott’s hand

a2e411a20df9591a82e4c9169e7beaa0


After shining in the Rising Stars Challenge his rookie year, D'Angelo Russell got asked about getting unleashed in the exhibition while holding a limited role with the Lakers. Then-Lakers teammate Jordan Clarkson shot Russell a look and said, “Don’t say nothing crazy.” The implication: Don’t badmouth then-Lakers coach Byron Scott.

Just how did Clarkson know Russell might disparage their coach?

Because Russell literally went out of his way to make it clear.

When Scott yanked Russell, he’d take the long way back to the bench. Using his right hand, he’s tracing the looping route — from the left wing, meandering down toward the opposite baseline before finally curling to the deepest part of his team’s sideline. It wasn’t subtle. It was done with an obvious purpose.

“So I didn’t have to shake the coach’s hands,” Russell recalled. “I’d do little [s—] like that.”

Then he’d get to the bench, sit next to one of his teammates and grumble. Grumble about Scott, grumble about the imperfect situation he’d been drafted into, grumble like the teenager he was.

Russell must own his own immaturity in Los Angeles. He’s responsible for his own actions.

But the Lakers are the ones who suffered the consequences of not developing him.

Russell was talented. He showed that with the Nets. He’s showing it with the Warriors.

I highly recommend reading Slater’s fantastic profile of Russell in full. It’s a great look into how Russell made that evolution.
