Magic Johnson praised D’Angelo
Lately, Magic Johnson spoke to Bryan Kalbroski about D’Angelo Russell’s addition to the Lakers. He expressed his optimistic thoughts about the point guard joining the team.
“I think D’Angelo has really grown and matured. He can score the basketball. He can pass the basketball. He doesn’t turn it over a lot. That’s what I like about him, too. That pick-and-roll with Anthony Davis is going to be special… If the Lakers can get in, and I think they will, nobody is going to want to play them. That’s for sure.”
Undoubtedly, D’Angelo is an amazing player with remarkable skills and can bring a lot of difference to the team offensively. Let’s hope that he will find a bright successful future with the team and that the team with the help of their new point guard could make it to the playoffs.
