Los Angeles Lakers rookie guard D’Angelo Russell returned to the starting lineup Sunday against the Chicago Bulls after being moved to the bench two and a half months ago.

Russell, the No. 2 overall pick in the 2015 draft, finished with 15 points and 6 assists in a 126-115 loss to the Bulls at the United Center and will start for the remainder of the season, said Lakers coach Byron Scott.
