Nets PG D’Angelo Russell on Brooklyn: ‘I love this city’

Brooklyn Nets point guard D’Angelo Russell states he loves the city of Brooklyn ahead of becoming a free agent on June 30.

Brooklyn Nets point guard D’Angelo Russell is in a weird spot this summer. He’ll become a free agent come June 30, and if it were up to him, he’d stay in Brooklyn. It’s evident he loves being a Net.

Russell, an NBA All-Star this past year, was a big reason the Nets were able to reach the postseason.

However, the Nets are pursuing point guard Kyrie Irving in free agency. Irving is obviously a superstar, so it isn’t the greatest news for Russell. The Nets then may not pursue Russell at all if they were to sign Irving, thus having Russell test free agency and sign somewhere…
