Everybody knows that the onus of the Lakers’ win was with LeBron James and Anthony Davis. But one should not forget that other teams too had their star duos; however, it were the Lakers who came out victorious. So somewhere down the line, the players like Kyle Kuzma, Dwight Howard, KCP, Alex Caruso, and others also deserved their due credit.

Kyle, specifically, remained one such player. He started just 9 games in the entire 2019-20 season, with none during the playoffs. As a result, his minutes played took a hit, and so did the overall average. This was enough for fans to disregard him.

Lakers’ young forward sent out a strong message before deactivating his account

Maybe Kyle had enough of it when he decided to tweet and respond to his haters. Moreover, he also deactivated his Twitter account after the post. He wrote on his wall, “Ight enough disrespect on my name. Y’all will be reminded.”

The 25-YO has been quite active on Twitter lately. From speaking on the pandemic to the American elections, he has been vocal in giving his take on important matters. More interestingly, he has also been creative in his approach to deal with haters. In one such tweet, the star forward invited fans to retweet his offer to win free PS5s.

Is Kyle Kuzma leaving the men in golden and purple?

A report suggested that the Lakers were keen on packaging Kyle to land Jrue Holiday in a deal with the New Orleans Pelicans. A source had added, “From what I understand, there was interest in Jrue Holiday on the Lakers’ side ahead of Dennis Schröder with a similar package, but with Kuzma in it as well.… So I know that, on some level, they’d be willing to move him. Like, if it was a significant upgrade.”

Jrue is a point guard and great ball-handler with some sharp defensive skills too. On the other hand, Kriss Kross has struggled with his efficiency ever since he was moved to the rotation. Having said that, everyone remembers Kyle’s clutch three-pointer from the seeding game that helped the Lakers defeat Nuggets. But for the fans who’ve forgotten, his Twitter account will work as a reminder.
