Author of a good season with the Washington Wizards, the interior Kyle Kuzma arouses many rumours. Despite a “player option” for next season, the 27-year-old is expected to test the market.
And inevitably, this is a real danger for Washington. Because with his level of play, the native of Flint is likely to arouse many interests. Especially since the former Los Angeles Lakers player has almost confirmed this intention.
“An extension in Washington anytime soon? That wouldn’t be a smart business move. The most I can take if I sign now is $15 million a season.
If you look at the current market, it’s not the price,” Kyle Kuzma told ESPN.
Indeed, with his performance, he can claim a larger contract. And now, the Wizards will have to decide on this file: the trade to recover assets now or take the risk of losing it without any consideration next summer.
Afterwards, Washington can also repel his suitors and offer him an XXL deal in a few months. But beware, it is also said that Kyle Kuzma would like to find a big market for the rest of his career…
