Live Bar, October 1st news today, Timberwolves player De Angelo Russell is a guest of NBA Radio SiriusXM, during which he talked about his expectations for the new season.
“We were still a young team last year. Youth may be an excuse for us to lose. But in the new season, I think this situation will no longer exist. We can no longer use youth as an excuse. We are a special team now. There are some experienced veterans in the team, which will bring great impetus to the team. We have to go through those challenges and then make a leap in the new season.” Russell said.
For Russell, the biggest difference between the past and the present is the respect and recognition they get from their opponents. “We will become a team that others like to watch you play but don’t want to fight against you. I think this has prepared us for the coming new season. We are the team everyone is talking about. We have players that match any team.” Russell continued.
In the 2021-22 season regular season, De Angelo Russell played 65 games, with an average contribution of 18.1 points, 3.3 rebounds and 7.1 assists; the playoff games contributed 12.0 points, 2.5 rebounds, 6.7 assists and 1.5 steals.
