Not really excellent this season with the Lakers, Kyle Kuzma knows he could be traded in the days to come. He can justly consider himself happy, because he was close to leaving a few days ago: a miracle.
Decidedly very active, the Lakers have recovered Dennis Schroder at the opening of the market on Monday. A nice blow for Los Angeles, managers who anticipated the departure of another player. It is now certain that the roster will be very different for 2021, even if the objective remains the same: the title, or nothing.
Unfortunately for them, the competition is also increasing with the Bucks pulling off a huge blow. The Lakers are warned, it will be necessary to build a competitive roster. For this, the front office could sacrifice another player: Kyle Kuzma.
Author of a very disappointing season off the bench, Kuzma does not shine with his defensive prowess. Offensively? It is also complicated with very awkward shooting nights last season, and especially during the playoffs where he was unable to raise his level of play. The interior was quite lucky, he who could have done his suitcases a few days ago.

The Lakers forwarded an offer for Jrue Holiday including Kyle Kuzma before making the move to acquire Dennis Schroder.
Kuzma was therefore not far from going into trade, but no agreement was reached between the Lakers and the Pelicans on Jrue Holiday. The leaders preferred to go to Schroder, allowing Kuz ‘to continue the adventure in Los Angeles a little bit longer. However, he may well be in a trade in the days ahead, be careful not to let your guard down.
Kyle Kuzma is expected to be traded soon if this rumor is to be believed. Fans shouldn’t miss the young interior, especially if the counterpart is right. To be continued.
