D’Angelo Russell has been one of the many Lakers who has been extremely vocal about singing the praises of his new head coach, Luke Walton and the tune was no different in his newest interview with SLAM Magazine.
Calling him a “great dude on and off the court” despite maintaining that the reason he’s so crazy about Walton is that he, “feel[s] like everybody is all in and with his demeanor, mentality and the way he carries himself, the way he supports us, the way he is as a coach,” it’s not a stretch to say that Russell would be equally excited for any coach not named Byron Scott.
