Why D'Angelo Russell should still be an option for the Lakers with the No. 2 pick

While most reports have the Lakers selecting either Karl-Anthony Towns or Jahlil Okafor with their #2 overall pick, D'Angelo Russell could end up being the one to put on the Golden Armor.

The Los Angeles Lakers not only kept their top-five protected pick on NBA Draft lottery night, they were the only team to move up in the draft, jumping from fourth to second overall. Now the question of who the Lakers will pick is resonating throughout Southern California. The players available for the Lakers to select largely depend on what the Minnesota Timberwolves do with the first overall pick

There have been rumors floating around that the Wolves may select skilled center Jahlil Okafor (and his giant hands) out of Duke.
