Is Kyle Kuzma Trying to Team Up with Trae Young on the Hawks? Wizards Star’s Most Recent Tweet Raises Questions on Future

Kyle Kuzma is not a man that stays silent about his opinions, especially on Twitter. Oftentimes, the Wizards star will watch an NBA game, and give all his thoughts on the social media site, almost as if he has been paid to do a play-by-play of sorts. And apparently, it was the same story with the Hawks vs Celtics series. In fact, the Wizards star even dropped his unfiltered thoughts after Trae Young and Atlanta were knocked out in 6 games. And let’s just say, there may be a tiny bit of tampering going on here.

Kyle Kuzma’s tweet

Despite commenting on about a billion players, along with the sometimes-insane opinions experts can have on them, Kuzma hardly ever speaks on the head coaches of any teams. Of course, this only makes sense, considering that the players themselves are the main draws of attention. While it wouldn’t be wrong of Kyle to focus on the head coaches of other teams, it is highly uncommon. And as you can see in Kuzma’s tweet below, the uncommon is exactly what we got to see.

Quin Snyder showed us how high level he is with how he took over half way thru the season and game planned this series 🤝

Of course, despite this first-round exit, congratulations are indeed in order for Quin Snyder. After all, when he was brought in by the Hawks, the franchise was in shambles. So, for the team to not only make the postseason under him but even take the championship favorites to 6 games is remarkable. However, there does seem to be more to it.

As we mentioned earlier, it would be highly unlikely for Kyle Kuzma to compliment any head coach apart from his own. And given the man’s intentions with his future in the NBA, the young star could possibly be implying a little something here.

Kyle Kuzma reportedly wishes to leave the Washington Wizards

Despite a breakout season with the Wizards during this past regular season, Kyle Kuzma famously wants to leave Washington. As reported by Forbes, the 27-year-old has been on the prowl for suitors ahead of next season. And given that the player will enter the final year of his contract next season as per Sportrac, he holds all the power to be traded wherever he wants.

After watching their incredible display, and the brilliance of their head coach, could the Atlanta Hawks be this former Lakers star’s destination of choice? It’s certainly possible.
