The Brooklyn Nets won a big game over the fifth-seed Boston Celtics. D’Angelo Russell is asked if he deserves to be in the All-Star Game.
Why?
“I’m a confident guy, so of course I’m going to say that, but I believe that too.”
DLo had just led the seven-seed Nets over the Boston Celtics, scoring 34 points to go with seven assists and five rebounds. It’s his seventh game in the last 10 with 20+ points – six of the 10 being wins. He’s playing at an All-Star caliber level of late, averaging 22.
