The Los Angeles Lakers broke a decade old championship drought when they won the title in 2020. Led by LeBron James, the purple and gold took down the Miami Heat in a six-game series to be crowned champions. And that has brought all of those players together, even if they aren’t on the same team anymore.

In the 2021 off-season, Kyle Kuzma was traded to the Wizards while Alex Caruso left to join the Bulls. Despite that, they not only maintain a close relationship with each other but also with current Lakers players like Bron. This was highlighted when James and Caruso recently reacted to an Instagram post about Kuzma.

Hе throws, the dudе catches it, thеn hе lооks this way. It’s likе, ‘That’s not hоw a no-lооk pass works, bro.’ But yоu know, hе’s still learning thе nuances of that sidе of things.”

Last week, the Wizards beat the Cavaliers after a clutch three-pointer from Kyle Kuzma. Both teams have had a good start to the season, and it was the former Lakers man who helped the Wizards to come out on top. Following the win, Kuzma revealed how a heckler motivated him to hit that game-winning shot.

He said, “There were some hecklers during the game talking to me, so I had to. It was their fault, really. They had a sign up that said, LeBron won Kuzma his ring. And I said, Without Bron, Cleveland wouldn’t be shit.”
