Russell closed with 35 points (13-25 FG, 6-10 3Pt, 3-4 FT), four rebounds, eight assists, two blocks and two steals in 44 minutes during Saturday's 121-120 double-overtime win over the 76ers.
Russell was electric, notching a season-high 35 points and dishing out eight assists, which also tied a season high. The star point guard has always struggled with consistency, but over his last three games, he is connecting on 50.0 percent of his field-goal attempts and 45.8 percent of his three-point attempts. Russell's fantasy upside will likely continue to be limited with Karl-Anthony Towns and Anthony Edwards demanding so many touches, but he is certainly skilled enough to remain a high-ceiling option in all formats.
