Draymond Green says D'Angelo Russell's shooting slump will make or break the Lakers' playoff chances over the final 16 games. If Russell doesn't improve, the team's season is likely over. Green suggests the Lakers might trade him if his performance doesn't turn around.

They're gonna need a better D'Angelo Russell.
Sometimes the ball just don't fall. Can't be upset about that one. Be ready for the next one.
You can't just say, "Oh man, shots ain't go in," when that's starting to be a trend in these 16 games. Can't just say that. Shots gotta go in. But D'Angelo Russell makes shots. Lakers win games. That's the reason the Lakers was in the position that they was in. Talking about D'Angelo Russell on the trading block because they needed a better D'Angelo Russell. D'Angelo Russell on the trading block showed up. Rest of the season, guess what? It's no longer 82, it's 16 now. Got to show up. So D'Angelo Russell play better, Lakers have a chance. D'Angelo Russell don't play better, Lakers don't stand a chance. Draymond Green.
