DLO has been benched

A real sicko

This can go one of 2 ways

JJ Redick says they're looking for more balance in the starting lineup, with a defensive presence, plus some offensive pop off the bench.

He emphasized it's not necessarily permanent, nor a inditement on Russell, but just an adjustment he thinks could better balance the rotation.

White Jesus up

I hate D'Lo so much

JJ Redick says both Cam Reddish and D'Angelo Russell "starred in their roles tonight."

JJ Redick on the Lakers win: “Paul George never got going in the game.”

JJ Redick on DLO: “DLO was a big time pop off the bench. He played really good basketball.”
