 From the Fox Sports Studios in Los Angeles, here's Kevin Wyatt. Piece of NBA news at this late hour as Jordan Richard of Swish Cultures is saying that D'Angelo Russell has told him that he intends to opt into his player contract with the Lakers. It's worth $18.7 million. So Russell will be returning to Los Angeles this season. Another player sticking around, P.J. Tucker. He'll be staying in the city of Angeles, the Clippers.
