D'Angelo Russell Carried to Locker Room After Hard Fall, However, is "OK"
By Rob Perez
The second overall pick in the 2015 NBA Draft and future of the Los Angeles Lakers, D'Angelo Russell, went down HARD late Tuesday night after attempting to climb “The Stifle Tower”/reject Utah Jazz Center Rudy Gobert…
Russell laid on the floor for a couple minutes in obvious pain…
…and was eventually carried to the locker room by the training staff and fellow teammates:
HOWEVER: breathe easy, Laker fans … it appears the injury is nothing serious/he hurt his butt:
D’Angelo Russell is OK. It’s basically a bruised butt, on which he took that hard fall. He’s able to return to this game.
