5 years agoMinnesota Timberwolves point/shooting guard D'Angelo Russell departed a situation in Golden State where he was the primary offensive weapon on a nightly basis, just to arrive in Minnesota and find himself in nearly the same situation. But much like while with the Warriors, Russell has made the most of it from a fantasy perspective, torching the Dallas Mavericks for 29 points on 10-for-20 shooting overall Monday. Without Karl-Anthony Towns (wrist) in the mix, Russell’s assist totals may be understandably stunted, although he did still pave the way with five dimes, also adding three rebounds across his 31 minutes. His next outing comes Wednesday against the Heat, who have proven themselves to be one of the league’s premier all-around defensive units, which could cause some owners to avoid Russell and his exorbitant price tag in DFS.--Jesse Borek
