Are the Lakers really going to trot out the D'Angelo Russell experiment yet again?
One-time for Los Angeles Lakers combo guard Patrick Beverley believes that one of the players who replaced him as part of a flurry of roster-correcting moves in 2023, starting L.A. point guard D'Angelo Russell, could be shipped back to the Golden State Warriors.
Note that his prognosis stems from last week, when then-L.A. Clippers All-Star forward Paul George was still available via sign-and-trade. Beverley was right, however, in predicting that Klay Thompson wouldn't be staying a Warrior.Russell did indeed opt into the final season of his contract, which will pay him $18.7 million in 2024-25.
The 6-foot-3 Ohio State product, 28, averaged 18 points on a .456/.415/.828 slash line across 76 regular season games in 2023-24, along with 6.3 assists , 3.1 rebounds, 0.9 steals and 0.5 blocks per bout. For the second straight postseason with Los Angeles, Russell was utterly exposed against the Denver Nuggets. He averaged 14.2 points on an inconsistent slash line of .384/.318/.500, 4.2 assists, 2.8 rebounds and 0.8 steals a night.
