Why Steve Kerr says Warriors will ‘desperately’ need D’Angelo Russell

Not many NBA teams have the difficulty of having to replace over 47 points a game from its lineup, but that is the conundrum the Warriors face after losing Kevin Durant to free agency and Klay Thompson for much of the season with a torn ACL. D'Angelo Russell will be a huge part of that in 2019, as the combo guard averaged over 21 points a game for the Brooklyn Nets last season and will be starting alongside Steph Curry this upcoming season. Warriors head coach Steve Kerr is down in Las Vegas assisting with the Team USA training camp as it prepares for the FIBA World Cup in September.
