Kyle Kuzma Shines With 20 Points And 10 Boards
7 years agoLos Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma finally got it going on Wednesday night, scoring an efficient 20 points on nine of 16 shooting. He would grab 10 boards to go along with three steals and a block. Kuzma is starting for the injured Brandon Ingram (groin) and should continue to do so until Ingram is cleared. Ingram is scheduled to be re-evaluated next week, so Kuzma could string together some nice games during this stretch. Kuzma started off the year hot, flirting with mid-round value until the Lakers started getting healthy bodies in uniform. Despite being just outside the top 125 in nine-category leagues, don't sleep on Kuzma in next year's drafts. He continues to log heavy minutes (42 minutes Wednesday) and is worth holding onto in all standard leagues.
