    Can he play the 3? I'm not sure...feedback? If he can, that will open up more playing time for him, obviously.

    Nice to see Kuz already incorporating boxing into his workouts. Its fantastic for conditioning and getting in shape. I remember Odom or someone else back in the day who did it and swore by it based on the results.

    This kid might be a Draymond like steal for us that we drafted; I think he's going to be really good, IMO.

    i think he can--provided that threeball from the summer is real. long three/skinny four like horry/shard lewis. that would be awesome.

    lakers might have gotten a late bloomer gem here. i'm really interested to see if and how he cracks the rotation this year.

    draymond is probably too much, but clarkson-level find is quite possible. and i know folks are down on clarkson, but for his draft position...nailed it.

    Ok, cool. Funny you mention Horry/Shard. Good comparison, IMO.

    I'm glad Magic put him on the "no deal" list. He said they got inquiries for Kyle. Probably for older vets at the end of their run. I really hope he keeps up his play after the initial shock of NBA play but everyone says his play level kicked way up from school to summer league so maybe he's the type of talent that rises to the challenge. Luke wants versatile types and I think we see him as a player we can switch between 3 and 4 depending on matchups. I hope he isn't part of any Deng deal.

    Kuzma was in a totally different system at Utah. It could be that run and gun up and down the court system just suits his style of play much better.

    S.O.T.D.

    Steal of the draft potentially.

    From the SL games, Kuzma is fearless and comfortable taking over. I don't think he'd be fazed by real NBA competition especially against bench players as part of the second unit. Has the talent along with the attitude to match. Kuzma is the one I'll be watching closely.

    I liked Kuz picked more and was way less surprised than when Nance was picked, Kuz was actually projected higher than where we picked, draftnet had us taking Bryant instead of Kuz earlier than eventually Kuz was projected at our pick, so I wasn't shocked by his pick either

    Can’t wait to watch this guy shoot 3’s. His form and release is really nice. In that same sense I used to enjoy watch Big Shot Rob launch 3’s. Art in motion.
