D'Angelo Russell still believes the Los Angeles Lakers can be better and feels they might not be their best until the playoffs.
The Los Angeles Lakers take on the Minnesota Timberwolves with LeBron James and Anthony Davis both playing despite their injuries.
The 31-year-old, nine-time All-Star feasted on a Minnesota lineup missing its top two big men and four regulars due to injuries, grabbing 21 rebounds in the second half alone.
Both James (left ankle peroneal tendinopathy) and Davis (left shoulder soreness) were upgraded to available about half an hour before tipoff after coach Darvin Ham said they were gametime decisions.
Anthony Davis had 27 points, a season-high 25 rebounds and a career-high seven steals while leading the Los Angeles Lakers to a 120-109 victory over the short-handed Minnesota Timberwolves on Sunday night.
