Lakers News: Kyle Kuzma Parting Ways With Agent, May Sign With Klutch Sports

According to Tania Ganguli of the Los Angeles Times, Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma has decided to part ways with his agents Mark Bartelstein and Zach Kurtin of Priority Sports and Entertainment.

With the influences of superstar LeBron James, Anthony Davis, and Kentavious Caldwell-Pope on the team’s roster, it seems like only a matter of time before Kuzma signs with Rich Paul’s Klutch Sports Group.

“I wish nothing but the best for Kyle,” said Bartelstein. “This was simply a situation in which it became clear our visions were not aligned. When that is the case, it simply does not make sense to continue our partnership. Once again, I want nothing but great things for Kyle.”

Most recently, Paul and Klutch Sports partnered with one of the biggest global talent agencies in the business in UTA.

At just 23 years of age, Kuzma is showing the maturity and foresight of someone much older. Perhaps No. 23 in Los Angeles has a little to do with that.
