LOS ANGELES — After D'Angelo Russell stopped well behind the line and drilled his eighth 3-pointer in the final seconds, he pointed at his forearm and mouthed his words clearly enough for all of Hollywood to understand.
"Ice!" the 20-year-old rookie said. "In my veins!"
Nobody could argue about Russell's cool on a spectacular night for the Los Angeles Lakers' next big thing.
Russell scored 16 of his 39 points in the fourth quarter, and the Lakers snapped their eight-game losing streak with a 107-101 victory over the Brooklyn Nets on Tuesday.
While Kobe Bryant sat out with a sore right shoulder, the Lakers got a remarkable game from the No.
