Brooklyn Nets Morning Dish: D’Angelo Russell, trendsetter

We like to think of ourselves as trendsetters here at the Brooklyn Nets Morning Dish, so when guard D’Angelo Russell described himself in a similar matter in a recent interview with GQ, you bet we noticed.

Russell dealt with some extraordinarily bad press as a rookie with the Los Angeles Lakers and is still battling the perception he’s a bad guy and — worse — a bad teammate.

He told Cam Wolf for the piece in GQ that he’s not interested in reversing his reputation, even as he’s taken some steps to get his own message out there.
