He’s just not aggressive enough for me. He reminds me of Andrew Wiggins and Kelly Oubre. They settle too much. Too cool for school.Its definitely Levert's team.
I'm not a Russell hater but he seems way too slow to do the things you want him to do. It's like he's running in sand. Doesn't blow by the defender and does that awkward put them on his hip for a contested midrange. When that shot is falling he's fine but if it's not he doesn't bring too much to the table. He even struggles advancing the ball past half without a screen. I don't mind keeping him but def dont want to pay big money for him.
I will say its a bit early so I'll give it time and hope he proves me wrong.
