Hes not a bust, hes still trying to figure his way out and how he fits in, he knows he can play , everyone in the nba is a top notch baller but how do they fit in a championship team...thats the key.
i followed dlo since he got drafted. I remember when he said hes a late bloomer just like how steph curry was. Steph curry started to shock the world around the age of 26/27. What prevented him to shine was his ankle injuries prior. Dlo is 25 right now. He had some injuries he had to deal with except the year he made the all start team. Personally, i dont think he will be in his prime until he is probably 27/28 believe it. #loading . trust me, yall aint see nothing yet. He will shock the world...
Not a bust, any player who made an All Star team (regardless of how they made it) can’t be a bust in my opinion. D’Lo is a little disappointing but not a bust.
He shows up when he absolutely has to. In college he wanted that high draft pick so he performed. Then three years later he wanted that sweet max contract so that season he showed up again.
Ain’t gonna lie a lot of the statements in this video are very wrong, like saying he didn’t live up to expectations, in Lakers that’s fair, I’m Brooklyn he did more than expected of him, in golden state he was solid and all but that team was a g league team so he wasn’t expected to get to the playoffs with that team, and then last season on the wolves that team would of made the play in if it wasn’t for injuries, now this season it’s still to be determined but the statement of he fails expectations everywhere he goes is just wrong
Exactly and also saying he didn't live up to the hype is just an unfair blanket statement like I mean the Lakers put the load of making them a great team again on every single young guy they drafted how could anyone they drafted have lived up to that hype
Crazy to see considering the types of improvements DLo has made this season. Completely locked in on defense this season, massive on/off impact. Probably the leader of the team along with Beverly. Wolves fans love him.
When I was watching him on the Nets I was enjoying how he made my favorite team so much fun but I knew that he wasn’t a franchise player and that investing a lot into him would be bad.
Man, even at the time of this video the Wolves were playing great defense, with DLo completely turning his defense around. He is the leader of the team on impact on winning this season.
Gave the vid a chance despite the false title to see if you could back it up and a minute into it I can tell you’re not educated enough to even speak on it lmao
@@dom3221 he did not really "led" nets to the playoffs tho, yes he was a vital key but the success of that nets team was because of the team effort plus east was relatively weak back then tbh
That Lakers game you spoke on wasn't even the elimination game. He didnt peak in Brooklyn, he was actually better in Golden State, he was just playing with trash. You don't even have all your facts straight bro
Front office reasons. Lakers moved him to clear cap for LeBron Nets moved him for Kevin Durant Warriors moved him because position wise it didn't fit So it's not like he is being moved for bags of chips
@@dom3221 dlo was on the nets in the 2017 18 season so that was way before Bron signed with the Lakers which lead them getting rid of dlo cuz of cap which isnt true. He was already on the nets
@@dom3221 front office wise i see how these moves made sense. but it’s just sad that someone of his caliber and potential hasn’t found a place to settle down and develop until now in Minnesota (hopefully)
As a Nets fan it’s so painful to see this He hasn’t been good recently It’s been so long that I outgrew my D’Angelo Russell Jersey because in that time since he was in Brooklyn I went from 5’5 to 6’0
He not a bust bro was an all star and has put up better numbers too, plus he led Brooklyn to the playoffs and he is only 25 the usual age for a player to hit there prime is 27 i hope he can prove us wrong
Russell really does not live up to his draft position but I don´t agree with the definition of a bust because you can´t really guide the narrative and expectations people have on you. According to your definition Lonzo Ball is a bust as well because he was hyped up to #2 on draft night and the same hype made the Lakers pick him. He´s playing well now but not close to the pre draft expectations
To see my favorite player have a video like this made about em hurts ngl😭😭 he's not a bust cause he made an all star and led his team to the playoffs. But he is disappointing a bit
@@Brandon-hp5jb I was talking about his seasons before gsw. He's a bad defender and isn't efficient also hasn't been able to do rim pressure. He was bad in the start of the season
I wouldn’t call D Lo or Wiggins a bust. Maybe they underachieved but they’re both still in the league playing at a high level. And in Wiggins case and now kinda D Lo The Timberwolves is a terrible franchise and Wiggins finally has a roll on GSW to achieve and excel in.
I'm a Sixers fan whose still pissed Lakers drafted DLo instead of Okafor in that draft. But I also still can't believe Magic actually draft Lonzo 2nd when everybody knew Tatum was better and a DLo, Tatum and Ingram core would of been super nice.
Average 3point shooter, can't attack the rim, really bad from 0-3ft, really slow, average playmaker, bad defender, average free throw shooter, bad at P&R and P&P, bad play-style ( mid range and really slow ). Idk why some wolves fan think he's a star... just empty stats, Pat run the offense better. Accurated video dude.
@@davyunwashington3613 hahaha... Why don't u look at least some stats? 35% FREQ, and 0.84 points per possession!! Why don't u search about his offensive efficiency? For me, I don't need to research, cuz I see his poor performance every night. Percentile 53 btw.
@@hazielv.kapustin6138 all those "bad stats" and he still made the all star team and took brooklyn to the playoffs. Some of kobes stats shows he's wasn't efficient but still one of the greatest.
@@fernandovalles1911 %FG and points per possession are very different. We can talk about difficult shots, spacing and gravity... Can't compare a 40% FG from Kobe and a 40% from a role player. Efficiency is relative, that's why I talk about points per possession, in this case ppp P&R. You can get an average %FG, but then get FT. That's why TS exist. I can mix every aspect of the game, and DLo O it's not efficient. Being an all star it's not an argument, I can even argue his performance that year.
Clearly you don’t watch basketball he’s the wolves most important player this year if he doesn’t play they don’t win he’s averaging 19 points and 7 assist with KAT and ant he’s the defensive leader and team leader
The thing is that D'lo's defense is terrible which is why he needs to be on a team where he can be the main focal point of the offense but that same team can carry the load of him not being a great defender on the defensive side of the court, that was why he was so great in Brooklyn because that's exactly the system he was put in. In Brooklyn he was the main offensive guy and the offense ran through him but his teammates would be able to pick up the load that is his terrible play on the defensive end. Minnesota's system does not fit him because they are a terrible defensive team always finishing bottom 5 in the League, instead of them adding guys who could really make a difference on the defensive end they added more firepower to their offense and they're defense is suffering from it a lot more. IMO I think they need to trade D'lo because either side you look they just don't match, getting D'lo always seemed like to me a way for them to convince KAT to stay and not to actually help their roster. If they traded D'lo then it would be better for not just the Franchise but D'lo as well
I think he pick it up cuz rn I wouldn't even say Kat doing well their struggling a little as this is really the big 3 first year to gel and wit ant doing as well as he has I think trying to get a 3 team trade like Beasley draft capital and like Bev or prince for Simmons is the must trade and the 3 team trade can be wit raps or Portland or wizards which ever team with a star the philly would want.
Bro what is this video? I don’t remember Magic Johnson saying “We’re gonna hang his jersey up from the rafters one day” if anything Zo is a “bust” Dlo is just not that athletic, sadly, which leads to his inability to create space for himself or get open. Definitely far too early in Dlo’s career to call him a “bust” Dlo is suited to be a great 3rd guy. He really would be elite with LBJ and AD, much better than WestBrick.
No matter he made it, he was an all star. He can be disappointing but not a bust.

hes way too overrated
@@Dave-si4rl agreed
He made the all star game in the weak east, and even then he barely made it

You can't be a bust if you lead a team to the playoffs and have been an all star.
He shows up when he absolutely has to. In college he wanted that high draft pick so he performed. Then three years later he wanted that sweet max contract so that season he showed up again.
