SALT LAKE CITY — With his rookie season coming to an end, former Ute Kyle Kuzma, now with the Los Angeles Lakers, didn’t want to grade his first year in the league just yet.
“I’ll let you know after four more games. Still a lot more games to go,” Kuzma said. “Could play terrible, there’s still more basketball to play.”
Unless Kuzma’s game completely falls off a cliff in the next eight days, he should feel very pleased with how his season unfolded. He was the rookie of the month for the combined months of October and November, where he displayed his ability to score at different places on the court.
