ONTARIO — The plays looked so easy as D’Angelo Russell navigated all over the court and seemingly did everything.
He made outside shots. He attacked the basket and converted on a floater and bank shot. He threw nifty passes. He forced turnovers.
Time and time again these moments happened. All of which created a montage of entertaining plays in the Lakers’ 124-115 victory over the Denver Nuggets on Sunday at Citizens Business Bank Arena that capture both Russell’s talent and potential.
He posted a team-leading 33 points, three assists and three steals, while shooting 13-of-19 from the field and 4-of-7 from 3-point range.
