For his introduction to the Wizards, Kyle Kuzma delivered a schizophrenic performance to say the least. Indeed, if some figures are quite worrying, the former Laker finished with a new personal best! Above all, it turned out to be decisive in a specific sector.
It’s official, a new chapter begins for Kyle Kuzma. After four years under the colors of the Lakers, the player will now represent Washington after being sent to the capital against Russell Westbrook. Recently opposed to Toronto, the former Purple and Gold could not help but laugh at the rout of his former teammates against the Warriors, trolling them before removing his tweet. It’s smart …
The concern is that when making mockery of the kind, it is better to ensure the blow on the floors. And against the Raptors, the former University of Utah did not shine offensively, far from it. In total, he only finished with 11 small points, all with an address to absent subscribers: 4/13 shooting (31%), including a pitiful 2/9 behind the arc. The icing on the cake was that it was also quite expensive, losing the air no less than five times.
Kyle Kuzma excels in defense and rebound
Nevertheless, all this is balanced by the work of the guy in his own half of the field. There is indeed a lot of coal, finishing with no less than 15 rebounds, all defensive! This is quite simply a career record for Kuz ‘, who however didn’t just settle for picking under the circle. As a net surfer present in front of the match explained, he was good defensively overall.
For the majority of yall who didnt watch the game. Kuzma did great defensively it was impressive and on the boards. Obviously not the best shooting night as yall see

For the majority of you who haven’t watched the game. Kuzma was excellent defensively, it was impressive, especially his rebound activity. Obviously not the best night of his life at the shoot, as you can all see.
We will also add that despite his setbacks in attack, the winger ended the game with a ratio of +20. To put it simply, only Bradley Beal did better against the Dinos, against whom DC was able to pocket an easy victory (98-83). The proof that the n ° 33 of the Wizards manages to contribute without weighing in the scoring, something which it had started to show last year in LA. It is up to him to keep the momentum going.
It wouldn’t be surprising if Wizards fans weren’t quite sure what to make of Kyle Kuzma’s debut. Hopefully the next meetings will bring more clarity!
