Lakers: Are D’Angelo Russell and Julius Randle the NBA’s Next Dynamic Duo?

Considering their situation, this season both Russell and Randle have put up respectable numbers.

Randle is averaging 11.4 points, 9.4 rebounds, and 1.7 assists per game, nearly a double-double. Russell still has a lot to learn, but he is currently averaging 12 points, 4.3 rebounds, and 3.3 assists per game.

That said, Russell is quickly understanding that the NBA has become a point guard’s league and is growing with each opportunity. Randle understands that versatility is a powerful weapon in the NBA and uses this to his advantage, whether it’s dribbling the ball down the court, or posting up for rebounds.
