Okay, so I wanted to figure out what’s up with D’Angelo Russell, you know, like, what to expect from him. So I started digging into it.

First, I looked up his stats from last season. You know, the usual stuff: points, assists, rebounds, all that jazz. Just to get a baseline of what he’s been doing lately. I looked back at a few seasons to see any patterns, good or bad.
Then, I checked out some game film. Not just highlights, either. I wanted to see how he was playing overall – his defense, decision-making, how he moved without the ball. Did he just stand around, or was he a part of plays even without touching the ball?
Next, I read some articles and analyses from basketball writers I trust. I read some, then I find some that are completely opposite of what I think, and read those too. It’s all about getting different viewpoints. That helps.
- One writer said that he is good.
- Another said that he is inconsistent.
Putting It All Together
After all that, I started forming my own opinion. I think D’Lo, what all his friends call him, is streaky for sure, but he’s got serious skills. One game he is scoring like crazy, and the next he might have single digit scores. So, based on what I found, I’d say he’s a capable scorer and playmaker, but consistency is key. Predicting his exact numbers is tough, but I think he is a good player, and will be good!
