Lakers trade Russ in three-team deal

A massive three-team deal is at work between the Los Angeles Lakers, Minnesota Timberwolves, and the Utah Jazz.

According to ESPN’s senior NBA insider Adrian Wojnarowski, the deal will send Russell Westbrook and a lightly protected 2027 LA first-round pick to Utah, Mike Conley and picks to Minnesota, and D’Angelo Russell, Malik Beasley and Jarred Vanderbilt to Los Angeles.

The development happened a day after LeBron James surpassed Kareem Abdul-Jabbar in the no. 1 spot in the all-time scoring list where they saw the OKC Thunder winning in the end.

Currently, Westbrook, who is coming off the bench for LA, is averaging 15.9 points, 6.2 rebounds, and 7.5 assists per game but this Lakers experiment remained unsuccessful as they continue to stay behind in the NBA standings.

Meanwhile, Russell’s output in Minny is at 17.9 points, 3.1 rebounds, and 6.2 assists.

Although they are producing almost equal output, Russell is shooting on a much-higher percentage at 46.5% compared to the 41.7% of Westbrook.

The trade will also send the former no. 2 overall pick to return to the Lakers, the team that drafted him in 2015.

Francis Ngannou cries ‘deception’ vs Anthony Joshua camp

Former UFC fighter Francis Ngannou accused AJ camp of ‘trickery’ when he suffered devastating knockdowns in the first and second round last March 8, 2024 in Riyadh, Saudi Arabia.

The MMA fighter and former UFC heavyweight champion said that AJ camp sabotaged him by letting him go early in the arena.

“We both fought at 3am. What I think, something that’s happened is that they get me to the arena very early. Like my pickup time was 10.30pm to go to the arena. And then when we get to the arena, they tell us that we are scheduled around 1.45am. right?” Ngannou blurted.
