After not receiving a long-term contract from the Minnesota Timberwolves, D’Angelo Russell was moved to the Los Angeles Lakers ahead of the NBA trade deadline.
Some things come full circle. At some point in your life, you may have left your hometown. You wanted something bigger. You may have found it, and realized it wasn’t for you. Now, you’re back in your hometown. Full circle.
The Brooklyn Nets may also be in the process of coming full circle. Years ago, this team was a spirited group of defensive specialists and role players.
They weren’t contenders, but they were a tough team to beat on any given night.

Could they complete the circle by reuniting with D’Angelo Russell this summer?
