It was all rainbows and butterflies for the Los Angeles Lakers on Sunday night after they took care of business against the Portland Trail Blazers at home, taking a 134-110 victory. At least that appeared to be the case until footage of Lakers guard D’Angelo Russell looking distraught on the bench made the rounds on social media.
In the viral video, Russell, while on the Lakers bench, looked like he was either on the verge of tears, or he looked like he had already poured his eyes out. Amid his prominent involvement in trade talks, Lakers fans then immediately thought that Russell had received news that he was on his way out in a trade and that his departure will become official in the coming days
