D'Angelo Russell Off Injury Report After Treatment
3 months agoThe Los Angeles Lakers aren't listing guard D'Angelo Russell (undisclosed) on their injury report for Thursday's meeting with the Denver Nuggets. Head coach Darvin Ham said on Wednesday that Russell was unable to practice after he received "tune-up" treatment, casting doubt on the guard's status, but Russell is good to go on Thursday. Though his name was swirling around trade rumors ahead of Thursday's deadline, Russell's recent hot streak may have driven up his stock to a point where the Lakers couldn't find any suitors for their asking price. Over his last 14 games, DLo is putting up 23.6 points, 6.5 assists, 4.1 threes on 46.3% shooting from deep, and 0.9 steals per contest. Although Russell is a must-start in season-long fantasy leagues right now, Thursday's matchup versus a Nuggets team yielding the fourth-fewest points per game (110.6) this season is a shy-away one for DFS purposes.
