Lakers' D'Angelo Russell: Solid effort from second unit
D'Angelo Russell finished Friday's 116-106 victory over Philadelphia with 18 points (7-12 FG, 2-4 3Pt, 2-3 FT), two rebounds and three assists across 25 minutes off the bench.The 28-year-old guard found himself in the second unit Friday in favor of Cam Reddish but didn't sulk about it, as Russell drained multiple threes for the fourth straight game and scored in double digits for the seventh straight. It's not clear whether the shift to the bench is a temporary one for Russell, but the Los Angeles Lakers' reserves could use a reliable threat -- only the Knicks' bench brigade has scored fewer points per game to begin the season.

Lakers' D'Angelo Russell: Poor shooting display in loss
D'Angelo Russell amassed 12 points (4-12 FG, 2-9 3Pt, 2-2 FT), one rebound, three assists and two steals in 22 minutes during Wednesday's 131-114 loss to Memphis.The Los Angeles Lakers needed Russell to step his game up with Anthony Davis (ankle) sidelined Wednesday. Instead, the floor general delivered another woeful shooting performance and once again had major issues from beyond the arc. The numbers look good on the surface, as Russell has scored in double digits in six games in a row, but the efficiency has been subpar. He's shooting 37.5 percent from the field and 29.2 percent from deep in his eight contests so far.
