What did it imply to you to return to Brooklyn? D’Angelo Russell: It’s nice. I’d by no means take it as a right, coming from the place I got here from. Obviously, I was a little traumatized there. To be here and get the opportunity to just be me where there’s familiarity as well is just icing on the cake. I’m on the level in my profession the place I’m not going out and scoring 25 factors each night time and wowing with numbers. It’s a degree the place I’m making an attempt to gravitate in direction of doing it the suitable method, and the way I can contribute to successful is my precedence. He (Coach Fernandez) lets me do this. He trusts me already, so I can think about attending to coaching camp for one thing like that and having that underneath my belt with the blokes. I believe the sky’s the restrict. -via HoopsHype / March 11, 2025
