The Lakers traded guard D’Angelo Russell to the Nets for forward Dorian Finney-Smith and guard Shake Milton.

The Lakers also sent forward Maxwell Lewis and three second-round draft picks to the Nets on Sunday.

Russell averaged a career-low 12.4 points for the Lakers this season in a diminished role under new coach JJ Redick, who had vowed to unlock the point guard’s formidable offensive game. Instead, Russell was removed from the starting lineup in early November, and he struggled to make a consistent impact as a reserve, with his shooting percentages declining significantly from his previous two seasons back with the Lakers.

The 6-foot-7 Finney-Smith, 31, isn’t a top scorer, but he’s a steady 3-and-D wing who fills an obvious need for the Lakers.

Russell, 28, is being traded by the Lakers to the Nets for the second time in his career.
