LA LAKERS

Whatsup Guys! This is gonna be a pretty long post so bear with me. I guess you can say its been an up and down season for us (mostly down these recent weeks). Ive been a huge fan of the Lakers my whole life, im from New York but my mom got me my first basketball shirt which was a kobe shirt, so ive been bleeding purple and gold ever since.

The reason for this post is because i want to hear whats up with D'Angelo Russell from people who are able to watch the games more consistently than i am able too. Being from New York makes it harder to tune in, i do stream pretty often and even buy single games off of league pass, but im still not able to tune in as often as id like. I do check the box scores for every game but that doesnt help me see how players are playing except for pure stats.

Im excited about all of our young core but for now i wanna talk about D'Angelo. The reason im asking is because this guy is my favorite player on the team (had to beg for his $130 authentic jersey for christmas) and i keep seeing people very frustrated with him on this sub. I have noticed hes been a inconsistent and recently hes had 2 poor scoring performances, but ive also seen luke say hes played well even when he hasnt shot well. So what im trying to get at here is, are you guys concerned about D'Angelo? Even if he doesnt end up the best out of the main 3 guys, as i can see ingram becoming the best of the 3, do you still believe he is an all star caliber player and still a big part of the future? I know fans are quick to jump back and forth on the guy because when he had a good stretch of about 4 games everyone was anointing him the savior and then now he had 2 bad games and everyone is saying hes a bust. So i wanna hear from the the people who take the time to educate themselves and dont jump to conclusions, what do you guys think about D'Lo and his future with the squad?
