There aren’t many sure things that come with the NBA, but D’Angelo Russell falling to the Philadelphia 76ers would make every loss worth it for Sam Hinkie and company.
Russell was electric on Thursday in his first NCAA tournament game — handling VCU’s havoc defense with the efficiency of a pro.
The All American missed the pull up jumper late, but the way he treated Doug Brooks with this crossover is so wrong.
Russell will match up with Arizona and their star wing — Rondae Hollis-Jefferson — in what should be an electric situation.
Looking forward to seeing Ohio State's D'Angelo Russell being guard by Arizona's Rondae Hollis-Jefferson. Russell 28 points, 4 3pters vs VCU
