The Los Angeles Lakers have one of the best young cores in the NBA. When this young core was being put together, Kyle Kuzma was definitely the least heralded of the group.
Brandon Ingram was not only the No. 2 pick in 2016, but he also went to a powerhouse program in Duke. Lonzo Ball was the No. 2 overall pick the next season and also went to a prestigious program in UCLA. In addition, his father, LaVar Ball, is as boisterous as they come and has talked Lonzo up for years.
