It is increasingly evident that the Nets have chosen D’Angelo Russell to be the face of the franchise. They are banking on the 22-year-old not only as the their star on the court, but as their most marketable player as they begin to sell tickets.
He has been everywhere in recent weeks. When Manchester City did a tour of New York, DLo was on hand at the NBA Store to play some video games and trade jerseys with Leroy Sane’, the ManCity 22-year-old.
He went to MetLife Stadium to watch Sane’ and others play, all recorded on video and tweeted out.
