As one of five point guards on the Team Giannis roster and playing in his first All-Star Game, D’Angelo Russell of the Brooklyn Nets did pretty well with his limited run Sunday night in Charlotte.
The 22-year-old guard, Brooklyn’s first All-Star since Joe Johnson in 2014, played 12 minutes Sunday night and scored six points with three assists and a rebound, hitting 2-of-5 from 3-point range, and was off the floor for Team LeBron’s big comeback in the third quarter.
Team LeBron came back from 20 points down in the third quarter to post a 178-164 win in the 68th NBA All-Star Game at Spectrum Center, with the teams setting or matching a handful of All-Star Game records in the process.
