"It bothered me"- D'Angelo Russell on Warriors trade rumors

Golden State Warriors guard D'Angelo Russell has stated on Monday that he has already used to learn rumors throughout his five-year NBA career, so he's mentally prepared for anything ahead of the 2020 NBA trade deadline Thursday. Russell, who went to the Warriors in a July trade, hasn't spent more than two seasons with any team as part of a nomadic start to his career. He's hoping to find a place to call home for an extended period, whether it's with Golden State or another organization. The Warriors and Minnesota Timberwolves have reportedly held discussions about a blockbuster deal sending Russell to the Wolves for "significant draft-pick compensation". They noted the New York Knicks have also showed interest in the guard. In an interview with Anthony Slater of The Athletic, Russel said: "It bothered me when we were further away from (the deadline). But when we're closer to it really happening, I'm numb to it. I'm just expecting a phone call. Let me know. "I'm ready for war. Let's get it. I'm ready for it. I don't have no feelings toward it. I'm just ready for whatever happens." "When I got drafted, I was in a rumor. I've been through it all. Not gonna lie to you. Any rumor you can think of, I've been a part of it. I've seen it (the last couple days). I can't get away from it. You go on social, you see it. You go on TV, you hear it. You talk to the media, they ask you about it. Ain't no getting away from it. But it is what it is." "I'm not losing sleep over it. I just want to be somewhere where it's home and I can unpack my bags, but I'm so comfortable with being uncomfortable nowadays that it is what it is. It's not something you can control, so if it happens sooner rather than later, you're going find out just like everyone else—social, my agent calling me or whatever." Source- Bleacher Report
