Ahead of his first game against his former team since getting traded last month, Brooklyn Nets guard D'Angelo Russell commented Friday on how his second

D'Angelo Russell is looking forward to "moving on" as he faces the Los Angeles Lakers with the Brooklyn Nets on Friday.

Despite a close miss by D'Angelo Russell, the Nets lost to the Lakers 102-101 in what was supposed to be a revenge game for Russell, who had 19 points, six rebounds, and eight assists off the bench. Ziaire Williams had 15 points and Tosan Evbuomwan had 15 points and six rebounds off the bench to continue his impressive stretch for Brooklyn after being one of the team's recent Two-Way signings.

It’s been a couple of weeks since the Los Angeles Lakers traded guard D’Angelo Russell and Maxwell Lewis to the Brooklyn Nets, marking the end of the second stint with the Lakers for Russell.

D’Angelo Russell, facing the Lakers for the first time since last month’s trade, was sharp off the bench and kept the Nets in striking distance throughout the night.

Austin Reaves scored a career-high 38 points, LeBron James had 29 and the Los Angeles Lakers held on to beat the Brooklyn Nets 102-101.

Los Angeles Lakers head coach JJ Redick provides an early update on Austin Reaves apparent injury after loss to the Los Angeles Clippers.

Brooklyn Nets forward Cam Johnson‘s trade value remains high and active, with just under three weeks left before the NBA hits the trade deadline on February 6th.

The Nets fell to 0-9 without Cam Johnson this season following Friday’s 102-101 road loss to the Los Angeles Lakers. When he isn’t in the lineup, it’s safe to say Brooklyn is cooked.
