Kyle Kuzma is playing with a ton of confidence

The Los Angeles Lakers for now have put this “LeBron James needs a second scorer” argument to bed for the time being. Right now, Kyle Kuzma has assumed the role and Lakers fans should be very excited because he is developing into a star before your very eyes.

Kyle Kuzma matched LeBron’s scoring output with 20 while grabbing 9 rebounds and dishing out six helpers. While doing all of this, Kuzma helped anchor a stifling Lakers defense that Memphis never figured out.

But it seems that Kyle Kuzma has a little of that “Mamba Mentality” coursing through his veins!

Let’s take a look and see who shot the ball better…Kobe or Kuz? Vote in the comments section if you wish!

This is confidence folks. Kyle Kuzma has found his role on this team and is getting very confident in his skin. He knows now that he can get his and feed off of LeBron James’ play as well.
