Los Angeles Lakers: Kyle Kuzma becomes all-time rookie leader in made 3’s

Los Angeles Lakers power forward Kyle Kuzma performed well in the clutch on Friday night against the Miami Heat. Despite starting off the game slow, Kuzma narrowed the Heat’s lead with two big buckets. Kuzma has never shied away from the spotlight, and he stepped up big late on Friday night.

Kuzma was 2-for-2 in clutch minutes, hitting both a right-hand floater over Kelly Olynyk and a 3-pointer at the top of the key to give the Lakers a 91-90 lead with 1:22 left to play. That 3-pointer made Kuzma the all-time leader for 3-pointers made by Lakers rookies.
