Los Angeles Lakers And Sacramento Kings Are Discussing Trade Surrounding Kyle Kuzma And Buddy Hield
After a disappointing season, the Los Angeles Lakers were eliminated in the first round of the Playoffs by the Phoenix Suns.
While some of their problems are directly related to the injuries of LeBron James and Anthony Davis, it still seems as if the team does have to make certain changes to continue to be seen as a contender no matter what.
One of these changes is rumored to be a Kyle Kuzma exit. The Lakers are reportedly shopping him, and it seems as Kuzma himself seems to know that his time in Los Angeles is up.
According to Shams Charania, Kuzma, who averaged 6.3 points, 3.8 rebounds and 1.2 assists with awful 17.4% shooting from deep in the playoffs, might be on his way to the Sacramento Kings.
The Lakers and Kings have apparently been discussing a trade that would send Kuzma to the Kings in exchange for a package that includes Buddy Hield.
