Golden State Warriors guard D'Angelo Russell said Monday he's become accustomed to rumors throughout his five-year NBA career, so he's mentally prepared for anything ahead of the 2020 NBA trade deadline Thursday.

"It bothered me when we were further away from (the deadline)," Russell told Anthony Slater of The Athletic. "But when we're closer to it really happening, I'm numb to it. I'm just expecting a phone call. Let me know."

He added: "I'm ready for war. Let's get it. I'm ready for it. I don't have no feelings toward it.
