D'Angelo Russell Imitated Kobe Bryant ... By Shooting an Airball
By Rob Perez
Well isn’t this just the cutest damn coincidence in the world… The morning of Los Angeles Lakers Head Coach Byron Scott officially announcing that he’s sending his two young stars (D'Angelo Russell and Julius Randle) to the bench — D’Angelo, at shoot-a-round today, decided to imitate Kobe Bryant…
…by shooting an airball.
The jokes write themselves. D'Angelo says he's about to imitate Kobe. Then D'Angelo airballs a shot https://t.co/2zdFhE1l9E

THIS-IS-AWK-WARD. CLAP, CLAP, CLAP-CLAP-CLAP.
Good to see that everyone in Laker Land is on the same page, though…
Byron said he has not talked to Russell and Randle about their demotions: "It's a big boys league. You got to come to work everyday."
