Kyle Kuzma 23 Points Full Highlights (12/2/2018)

I was digging this Lakers team a lot more before LeBron showed up. Sure, I got caught up in some of the Summer League hype surrounding Lonzo Ball and Kyle Kuzma, but there was a lot of young talent there, and I’m always down to… enjoy young talent. Then LeBron and his hand-picked collection of…

Kyle Kuzma 24 Points Full Highlights (11/4/2018)

The Lakers are still under .500 10 games into the season, so that means it’s time for LeBron’s favorite time of the year: trade season! As GM of the Lakers, he gets to decide which players stay and which players go. He also gets to handpick a new coach if he wants, but that’s not…

Kyle Kuzma 37 Points Full Highlights (10/22/2018)

Kyle Kuzma didn’t have great showings in his first two games, especially in terms of the long ball, where he shot a combined 2-of-12. I can be impulsive sometimes, so obviously I started thinking: what if Kuzma’s stellar rookie season had been a mirage? Four-year college players sometimes peak early, so you can’t blame me…

Kyle Kuzma 30 Points Full Highlights (4/4/2018)

Kyle Kuzma has some pretty hook shots. A lot of players only shoot running hook shots when their drives to the basket are disrupted and they’ve ended up somewhere where they didn’t expect, but with Kuzma it feels like part of a plan when he shoots those things. I don’t know if I’m just romanticizing…

Kyle Kuzma 26 Points Full Highlights (4/3/2018)

Kyle Kuzma has delivered after his impressive Summer League (which seems so long ago, now). I didn’t think he would, really. No one ever does, I’ve been burned by Josh Selby and the like so many times that I’m beginning to think it’s better to suck in Summer League. I’m pretty much ready for this…

Kyle Kuzma 27 Points/6 Assists Full Highlights (3/30/2018)

I hate it when the home crowd gets excited and loud. For some reason it just pisses me off. So when Kyle Kuzma was involved with a sequence of plays that closed the Bucks’ lead from double-digits to nothing, and the Lakers’ faithful got louder and more raucous each time the gap was narrowed, I…

Kyle Kuzma 25 Points Full Highlights (3/24/2018)

What was the ratio of Grizzlies fans to Lakers fans at this game? This game IN MEMPHIS. Based on the loudness of the “Kuuuuuuuuz” chants every time Kyle Kuzma did something (I didn’t hear any chants when he was doing nothing, but they could’ve existed), I’d say it was 90/10 in favor of the Lakers….

Kyle Kuzma 27 Points Full Highlights (3/19/2018)

I already hold an odd form of nostalgia for this past offseason’s Summer League and preseason, when you couldn’t walk five steps without hearing yet another Lakers fanperson extolling the virtues of the Lakers rookies, of Kyle Kuzma and Lonzo Ball. Grand proclamations of glory flooding social media, previously unwatched basketball becoming must-see TV. There…

Kyle Kuzma 26 Points Full Highlights (3/13/2018)

Since Kuzma hasn’t appeared on my channel recently and I don’t normally ignore players for no good reason, I sort of figured that he was experiencing some kind of prolonged, month-long slumpy-wump. So I went and checked his game logs only to find that, of course, I was right (I always am); this is only…

Kyle Kuzma 23 Points Full Highlights (2/14/2018)

Kyle Kuzma hasn’t exactly hit the rookie wall, well, maybe he has a little bit, call it the rookie speedbump if you want. He’s still scoring at a decent rate, but it’s decidedly less decent than what he was doing at the beginning of the season. Lots of single-digit affairs after those 30-point games he…
