The Los Angeles Lakers made D'Angelo Russell the No. 2 pick in the NBA Draft a few weeks ago, but he officially joined the team today.

The former Ohio State phenom is expected to net $5.1 for his efforts in the upcoming campaign. The Lakers will retain club options for the third and fourth year of Russel''s contract.
