Apparently, DLo is the only player in NBA averaging 18/6 on less than 22% usage rate. Efficient shooter and playmaker on non high usage rate is s great fit for Bron - AD led team.

It will be an amazing story - the prodigal son returns home and makes good! Gail Goodrich left the Lakers (expansion draft?) and came back as a key piece on a championship squad.

The dude is load manage like he is Kawhi.

This is not looking good.
Not sure if he is trying to force Lakers to give out an extension.

If he is resting like this in the playoff, we are in trouble.

No big deal really.

He sprained his left ankle and came back and hurt his left hip, then has a sore left foot. You might want to rest him just because it’s all on one side since Divedummy hurt him

Probably training staff figured to play it safe with his foot discomfort with the way the game was going.

Watching WM39, did I miss something or did DLO tweak something?

For supposedly having ice in his veins, he sure can’t keep the swelling down!

Darvin Ham said it was "precautionary" to hold D'Angelo Russell out tonight. Said he could've continued.


Glad it's nothing serious.

^Seriously, they shouldn’t have rushed him back. Fingers crossed, we ain’t say the same for Bron.

Its almost a certainty that we in the play-in at a minimum now, so just get up off those feet and kick it on the downlo till the postseason.

Exactly, training staff probably didn't want to take a chance with the way the game was going but the haters were waiting on their chance once again. Hate on though.

This is then other foot. Seems like load management in a game where they felt comfortable. We might see something similar against Utah with AD or Lebron if they are up big.

I agree good choice..with very important B2B coming up, the Lakers win these next 2, they would very well get the 6th seed.

The game against the Suns, very possible they don't play their starters if they already have the 4th slot clinched.

I don't know if the Warriors lose again because of their schedule. Yes there are the Nugget and Kings, but not sure if either game is important as far as standings to the latter teams so it depends on the importance of the game

I think winning 50 games means something to the Kings.

I don't think we REALLY need him until the Clippers game

If he is having an issue I'd sit him until then, especially with Lebron back his absence hurts but can be lessened in terms of playmaking and scoring.

We can beat Utah without him and that avoids making him play in the b2b.

Maybe. But based on that logic I would rather play DLo against Utah and hold Lebron out so we can play Lebron against Clips. It’s just a matter of how serious it is I guess.
