Previously it was Chris Paul who was included in rumors to go to La La Land and then Bradley Beal but now, it is being reported that Lakers 3^rd year player, Kyle Kuzma has a significant amount of interest from teams around the league.

Will Kyle Kuzma be traded away from the Lakers?

Even though the Los Angeles Lakers are coming off of a championship season, multiple NBA analysts and reporters are claiming that the Lakers roster is far from completed.

This includes the likes of the Ringer’s Chris Vernon and Undisputed’s very own Shannon Sharpe who actually said that he would trade away Kuzma in a heartbeat.

Now, reports have come in that multiple teams are interested in acquiring the 25 year old during this offseason.

It is still unknown if the Lakers will make him available on the trade market but if they want to attract stars to the City of Angels, letting go of some players with cap holds might be the move.

With the acquisition of Anthony Davis in the 2019 offseason, Kuzma’s role was reduced and ended up averaging a mere 12.8 ppg on 43% from the field.
