D’Angelo Russell displeased with Zion Williamson after close loss
D’Angelo Russell is not a fan of Zion Williamson’s bully ball.
Russell’s Minnesota Timberwolves squared off against Williamson’s New Orleans Pelicans on Wednesday. Though Minnesota led for much of the game, Williamson took over late to score New Orleans’ final 14 points. He finished with a career-high 43, and the Pelicans squeaked out a 119-118 win.
In one particularly noteworthy late-game sequence, Williamson ripped a Russell pass away from Jaden McDaniels and threw down the jam to give New Orleans the lead.
