The Golden State Warriors will have tough roads ahead. They’ll be putting their future in the hands of D’Angelo Russell. There’s no denying the 23-year-old is one of the league’s best guards, especially given his age.
Russell averaged 21.1 points per game last season, just his fourth in the league. After spending two seasons with the Lakers, they moved on. The Nets moved on after just two seasons with Russell as well, trying to build a superteam with Kyrie Irving at the helm in Brooklyn.
Now, the Warriors will inherit Russell, who has bounced around from the West Coast to East Coast and not back to the West Coast.
