It is understandable that Lakers fans want to do this. Kuzma's performance on the court didn't get the expectation of LA fans. This season, Kuzma's shooting percentage is only 43.6%, averaging only 12.8 points. Obviously, with the arrival of Davis this season, Kuzma had to take a back seat and become the team's substitute player. In addition, Kuzma's shooting percentage in the playoffs is 44% and 3 1% on the three-point line, which is only 10. 1 minute.
American fans can really speak out and act quickly. However, judging from the overall lineup of the Lakers, Kuzma's performance in the regular season is relatively ups and downs, but he also has a bright performance. With the addition of Davis, he became the first offensive point of the Lakers, and Kuzma's possession rate did drop. It is worth mentioning that Lakers coach vogel still trusts Kuzma, which is why the management didn't trade Kuzma.
Thousands of people petitioned not to give Kuzma the championship ring! Sounds like a joke. It seems that this petition is still an act of attacking players. The management of the Lakers can keep Kuzma, to a certain extent, believing that his future will have a higher limit. Kuzma's defensive performance against Harden in the playoffs this season is worthy of recognition.
The Lakers have won two games in a row in the finals. If nothing goes wrong, the Lakers can win the championship. At that time, the championship ring will definitely be given to Kuzma, and the Lakers are more optimistic about cultivating young people. With old players like James and Rondo in the team, Kuzma will definitely have better room for improvement. Of course, Kuzma's rookie season will end at the end of this season. Can the Lakers offer him a suitable contract?
