In 2022–23, the LA Lakers’ season was all over the place. They had a rough start but then surprised everyone by making it to the Western Conference finals. A big part of their comeback was getting D’Angelo Russell, who came back to the team that chose him in 2015 and gave them much-needed energy.

Russell and LeBron James make a strong backcourt duo, as Russell averages 15.8 points and 6.3 assists per game and shoots 41.4% from 3-point range. And it’s no wonder that Russell is teaching his son Riley how to dunk early on. He’s about to reach new heights in the game.
D’Angelo Russell praised his son as he made a basket and celebrated on his most recent Instagram story. Riley dunking a toy basketball and then running towards his dad to get a cheer from him is shown in the cute 30-second video.
