Paul George : "ESPN had Russ 70th-80th in their ranking. That's disrespectful. Their opinions don't matter, 465 guys talking crap. Russ is Top 25 player - easy" (alien.top)

If he was top 25, the Clippers wouldn't have gotten him for the chump change he's making.

That said, I do believe he's got a quality argument for top 50 and it's the biggest bargain contract in the NBA right now.

There are 30 teams in the NBA. Being top 50 means you're either the 2nd best man in playoff-tier team or a tank commander on a bad team. Russ won't even be the best player on Spurs(who just got no. 1 pick), I guess you can argue of being in competition in Portland, but even Blazers would rather treat Scoot as true no. 1 over Russ. That's 2 of the worst team last season, and Russ can't even be no. 1 in there. So something like top 100 is where Russ currently resides, which seems fair.

Anfernee Simons and jerami Grant are both better than russ
