D’Angelo Russell has not played well thus far in the Western Conference Finals, and one particular stat shows how much the Los Angeles Lakers have struggled with him on the floor.
Russell scored 10 points in 33 minutes off the bench in the Lakers’ Game 2 loss to the Denver Nuggets on Thursday night. He managed 8 points in 26 minutes in Game 1. Russell is just 7-for-19 from the field (1-of-8 from three-point range) combined through the two games.
What’s even worse is that the Lakers are -41 with Russell on the floor in the series.
