D'Angelo Russell

D'Angelo Russell is one of those guys who makes basketball look almost too easy — that silky pull-up jumper, the no-look passes, the way he just glides through pick-and-roll reads like he's been playing chess while everyone else plays checkers. Coming out of Ohio State as the second overall pick in 2015, the expectations were enormous, and honestly he took some lumps early in his career in Brooklyn and beyond. But watching him carve out a legitimate NBA identity — All-Star selection in 2019, becoming a legit secondary scorer and shot creator — showed real resilience. DLo has always had elite offensive instincts; the question has been consistency and staying healthy. When he's locked in, he's one of the smoothest guards in the league, and at 30, there's still plenty of story left to write.
