D'Angelo Russell · In between his own off-shooting night and the Brooklyn Nets’ 8.8 percent chance of winning in the final ten seconds, probabilities hadn’t been friendly to D’Angelo Russell on February 4, 2025. As basketball’s history has long confirmed, though, all is forgiven when one drains the ones that truly matter. Proven to have “ice” coursing through his veins since arriving to the NBA scene, Russell first spectates as a like-minded teammate buries a 3-pointer, slicing the Nets’ deficit to just one in the final 6.9 seconds. Complementing the Houston Rockets’ sloppiness with a late-game savvy of his own, Brooklyn’s recently-returning floor general finds himself perfectly positioned after Amen Thompson’s inbound pass attempt goes awry. Handed the game-winning shot opportunity on a silver platter, Russell rewards the unselfish play flawlessly, letting fly a game-winning 3-pointer that brings Barclays Center to its collective feet. Heroic during a night that saw his ninth different tie-or-take-the-lead bucket in the final five seconds, Russell did a bit of everything, tallying 10 points, four rebounds, five assists, two steals, one block, and two 3-pointers. · State of Mint
