Kyle Kuzma Has Perfect Response to LeBron James’ Jersey Switch to No. 6

LeBron James gave up on his No. 23 jersey, and Anthony Davis will get this number. According to reports, LeBron will go with No. 6. He was wearing this number in Miami. Several players reacted to the change, including Kyle Kuzma.

“All we need is the headband bro. Give the fans what they want,” LeBron’s teammate tweeted.

We all remember Headband LeBron. A receding hairline is the only problem LeBron had throughout his career. It was the only sign of his advanced age. Kuzma wants it back.

Kuzma was one of the first to discuss the Lakers’ playoff run.

“I wouldn’t imagine not making the playoffs (at the beginning of the season),” Kuzma said when asked about the playoffs. “We got derailed by a lot of injuries, and that pretty much sums up our season. At one point we were holding our heads high, in a great position, and that bug just came in and hurt us. Just continue to get better, every single day. Put the work in and over the years accumulate all the work and just get better. I think I’ve done a pretty good job developing so far, but the good thing is there’s always room for growth.”

LeBron is amazed with his younger teammate, too.

“He’s not allowing anybody to put a cap on him and saying he’s just a scorer, I think he wants to be more than that,” he said. “He’s continuing to get better and better, not just offensively but defensively. He’s just playing all-round solid basketball. His ability to make plays, his ability to rebound as of late, obviously we know how well he can score, but he wants to make more of an impact not just for himself but for the team.

“It started as soon as I signed, he was the first guy to call me off the team. It actually started before that, we’d been talking when I was in Cleveland, he wanted to pick my brain, talk about how he could get better. We’ve had that mutual respect and I saw how talented he was playing him twice last year and watching him the late games when I was in the Eastern Conference. Our relationship on the floor is getting better and better, if he moves I’m going to find him I’m always looking for him and he knows that.”
