D’Angelo Russell, Los Angeles Lakers: How Russell fits on the 2015-16 Lakers is perhaps the most fascinating question of the upcoming season. Los Angeles employs a trio of shoot-first guards—Kobe Bryant, Louis Williams and Nick Young—so along with Jordan Clarkson, where does that leave Russell? The rookie out of Ohio State is a better all-around talent than Williams and Young, but Russell’s playing time and exact role remain unknown. For better or worse, the Lakers will be captivating to watch.
