While there is no reported deal, it is always fun for fans to stir the pot about potential rumors.
For example, the Detroit reference almost certainly refers to Detroit Pistons guard Derrick Rose, who has been rumored to be on the Lakers’ wish list this offseason.
Still, Kuzma played an important bench role and helped the Lakers win the NBA title this season. So it would certainly take a lot for them to trade a young and promising player.
For his career, Kuzma averages 16.0 points and 5.5 rebounds per game.
