Kyle Kuzma Makes Shock Orlando Claim Ahead Of NBA All Star Rising Stars Challenge

Kyle Kuzma may be young and fresh on the floor, but he sure knows how to roll. The young Laker mocked the Orlando Magic and used the media presence his team receives these days.

The Los Angeles Lakers were all over the sports news after Magic Johnson managed to get LeBron James on the roster. The team was part of almost every rumor this season, and it seems like Kuzma likes that. Los Angeles is made of stars, and we saw some of the greatest names wearing a Lakers uniform, including Wilt Chamberlain, Elgin Baylor, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Magic Johnson, Kobe Bryant and Shaquille O’Neal. That’s when Kuzma decided to take a shot at Orlando.

The Lakers got back on track after acquiring LeBron past summer. They may not be doing a good job at the moment, but it’s just a phase. LeBron James is in the house, and we know how things end when he is around. They are stealing the spotlight, and some teams hate that.

Young star still try to cope with LeBron’s talent on the floor, and some of them had hard time dealing with the trade rumors. Kuzma is one of the greatest young prospects on the Lakers roster and he likes how things develop. Others may be bothered with all the rumors and criticism, but that’s not the case of Kuzma.

Orlando was hit really heard

“Obviously the national media loves the Lakers,” Kuzma said. “Everybody talks about it and when you add LeBron James to the mix, one of the greatest players, you’re going to have even more. I mean for me, I wouldn’t want it any other way. I want people to talk about me, good or bad, because if they’re not, you’re not doing something right. I’d rather be talked about bad in L.A. than play in Orlando and not get talked about.”
