‘Built for this:’ Russell helps Nets storm back from 28-point deficit to stun Kings

D’Angelo Russell howled into the rafters, flexed for the crowd and then disappeared into the locker room like a thief in the night after the Brooklyn Nets overcame a 28-point deficit to stun the Kings 123-121 on Tuesday night at Golden 1 Center.

“I’m built for this s---,” Russell screamed.

Russell scored 27 of his career-high 44 points in the fourth quarter as the Nets (37-36) stormed back snap a three-game losing streak. Rookie Marvin Bagley III scored 28 points for the Kings (34-36), who have lost 10 of 14 to fall seven games out of the eighth spot in the Western Conference playoff race.
