[14] His eight three-pointers broke Nick Van Exel's previous rookie Laker record of six in a single game.

He subsequently earned NBA All-Rookie Second Team honors. [16]

In the Lakers' season opener on October 26, 2016, Russell scored 20 points in a 120–114 win over the Houston Rockets.

[19] [20] On January 31, he recorded his second career double-double with 22 points, a career-high 10 assists and seven rebounds in his return from a three-game absence with a pair of mild leg injuries, helping the Lakers defeat the Denver Nuggets by a score of 120–116. [21] He set a new career high for assists with 11 against the Washington Wizards the following game on February 2. [22] On March 19, he scored a career-high 40 points in a 125–120 loss to the Cleveland Cavaliers. [23]

On June 22, 2017, Russell was traded, along with Timofey Mozgov, to the Brooklyn Nets in exchange for Brook Lopez and the rights to Kyle Kuzma, the 27th pick in the 2017 NBA draft. [24] In a 2019 interview on ESPN's First Take, then Lakers director of basketball operations Magic Johnson admitted that Russell's Snapchat incident with Nick Young, in which Russell secretly recorded Young admitting that he had cheated on then-fiancée Iggy Azalea, played a role in his decision to trade Russell.

[30] On February 14, he recorded 18 points and nine assists off the bench in a 108–103 loss to the Indiana Pacers, becoming the first Nets player to notch 15+ points and 5+ assists off the bench in three straight games since Orlando Woolridge in 1986–87. [31] On February 22, he started for the first time since November 11 and scored 19 points on 7-of-16 shooting in a 111–96 loss to the Charlotte Hornets.

[40] On January 18, he matched his career high with 40 points in a 117–115 win over the Orlando Magic. [41] He was subsequently named Eastern Conference Player of the Week for games played from Monday, January 14, through Sunday, January 20. It was his first career Player of the Week award. [42] On February 1, 2019, he received his first All-Star selection as a replacement for the injured All-Star Victor Oladipo in the 2019 game.

[54] [55] Russell is close friends with Karl-Anthony Towns and fulfilled their dreams of playing together in the NBA.

[56] On February 23, he sat out the first game of a back-to-back against the Denver Nuggets to rest his sore knee. Since the game was nationally televised on NBA TV, the visiting Timberwolves were deemed to have violated the NBA's policy against resting healthy players and fined $25,000, becoming the first team to be fined since the policy was instituted in 2017.
