Faced with the powerful squad that the Brooklyn Nets put together , the Los Angeles Lakers had no choice but to strengthen their team for the 2021-2022 season of the National Basketball Association (NBA) to keep their aspirations to fight for the title real.
One of the high-caliber reinforcements that landed in California was Russell Westbrook. However, the Los Angeles quintet had to sacrifice two pieces: Alex Caruso and Kyle Kuzma , precisely, the latter revealed what he thought about the arrival of “Russ”.
After four seasons with the Lakers, Kuzma said goodbye to the Staples Center with a production per game of 15.2 units , 5.6 rebounds and 1.9 assists with 36% effectiveness in shooting from long distance (triples).
The truth of Kyle Kuzma
As reported by Fubo Sports, Kyle Kuzma thought before the imminent arrival of Russell Westbrook that his new destination on the best courts in the world would be the Sacramento Kings, a team with few aspirations in the league.
However, he ended up landing in the American capital where he can start building big things alongside Bradley Beal, being a fresh start at this stage in his career to really show what he’s made of.
