The 2019-20 Los Angeles Lakers were a special team as they went on to win the NBA championship.
LeBron James and Anthony Davis were undoubtedly the primary superstars on the team, but many supporting players executed their job perfectly for the Lakers to win it all.
Among them was Kyle Kuzma, who was crucial in the Lakers lifting the Larry O’Brien trophy for the 17th time in franchise history.
Kuzma was later traded to the Washington Wizards by the team to acquire Russell Westbrook.
While Kuzma is no longer a member of the Lakers, he recently shared a picture of himself with the NBA championship trophy that he won as a Laker, via his official Twitter handle.

Since leaving the Lakers, Kuzma has only gotten better as an individual player.
However, Kuzma is no longer in the position to win another NBA title, at least not for a couple of years.
The Wizards are currently stuck in the middle of the pack in the Eastern Conference.
They don’t have enough talent on the roster to win it all, but at the same time, they aren’t as bad as they need to be to land a lottery pick in the upcoming drafts.
As for Kuzma, he averaged 21.2 points, 7.2 rebounds, and 3.7 assists per game for the Wizards last season.
With Bradley Beal gone from the team, fans can expect Kuzma to take on the role of one of the primary scorers for the team throughout the 2023-24 season.
But can Kuzma lead the Wizards to the postseason?
