After the Los Angeles Lakers traded D'Angelo Russell, he had one of his best games of the season, recording 22 points, eight assists, two total rebounds, two blocks, and one steal. Additionally, recent All-Star voting could indicate a shift in the coming years for Anthony Davis and LeBron James.

The Los Angeles Lakers have traded guard D'Angelo Russell to the Brooklyn Nets for forward Dorian Finney-Smith and guard Shake Milton.

Once he found his way back to the Lakers in 2023, former All-Star guard D'Angelo Russell celebrated being given a second chance with the franchise. But not even two full seasons after his return, Russell was traded again to another one of his former teams.
