D’Angelo Russell and Karl-Anthony Towns are close friends, so much so that there was rampant speculation that Russell was going to join the Minnesota Timberwolves in free agency over the summer.

Following a four-year reign of terror from LeBron James and the Miami Heat, the Golden State Warriors soon became the new superteam to hate after a long five-year juggernaut-like stint atop of the NBA.
