After the Los Angeles Lakers traded D'Angelo Russell, he had one of his best games of the season, recording 22 points, eight assists, two total rebounds, two blocks, and one steal. Additionally, recent All-Star voting could indicate a shift in the coming years for Anthony Davis and LeBron James.

D’Angelo Russell has come full circle, traded from the Lakers to the Nets for a second time. But this time not as a hotshot prospect but a mature leader.

Unfortunately for the Nets, even the presence of Russell was not enough to prevent the team from enduring a 130-113 loss to the Raptors. Russell had 22 points and eight assists in his debut (second stint) with the franchise while Cam Johnson had 24 points and three assists.
