Lakers point guard D'Angelo Russell knows he has been viewed as having shortcomings on defense. He’s out to change that perception.
D’Angelo Russell was roaming in the key as the last line of defense for the Lakers when Sacramento Kings All-Star point guard De’Aaron Fox dribbled past Gabe Vincent and Max Christie before entering the lane for a layup. As Fox rose toward the basket, Russell stood his ground and blocked the shot during Wednesday night’s preseason game.
“Oh yeah, he's more aggressive on the defensive side, for sure,” forward Rui Hachimura said. “He's more focused on the defense. We know he got offense. He's now more vocal, which helps a lot. I like when the point guard, the leader is vocal. It's easier for me to kind of get into the game. He's always trying to communicate with the other guys.' It is true that scoring is not an issue for Russell. He’s averaging 16.7 points and 6.
