D’Angelo Russell has played for numerous teams throughout his entire career. The teams include the Golden State Warriors, Los Angeles Lakers, Minnesota Timberwolves, and Brooklyn Nets.

The Los Angeles Lakers have only made one trade this year so far. They decided to ship out D'Angelo Russell in return for Dorian Finney-Smith and Shake Milton. Milton has already fallen out of the rotation in Los Angeles.

Lakers guard Austin Reaves gave major credit to his former teammate D’Angelo Russell for helping him deal with the LA scrutiny.

As the calendar turned toward 2025, the Los Angeles Lakers made a bold roster move, trading D'Angelo Russell to the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for versatile forward Dorian Finney-Smith and sharpshooter Gabe Vincent.
