Who will win the Russell sweepstakes?
One of the most highly touted guards to come out of college, D’Angelo Russell, has now entered his name in this year’s NBA Draft. With a Top 5 projection, you might as well.
Russell averaged 19.3 points, 5.7 rebounds and 5.0 assists for the Ohio State Buckeyes this past season and was named Big Ten Freshman of the Year.
Ohio State managed to go 24-11 and clinched a berth to the NCAA Tournament thanks to Russell’s play, but the team fell short when they lost to Arizona in the round of 32.
With savvy passing abilities and vision on the court like him, it’s no wonder NBA scouts are salivating over his talent at the next level. Peep his skills below.
