“Like a dream come true”: Kyle Kuzma had forceful feelings in coming to Milwaukee in fifth place from refueling wizards

Kyle Kuzma won the ring with the Lakers in 2020, and later the season was moved to oblivion in the Russell Westbrook trade, which made Kuzma a wizard in Washington. Arriving in Milwaukee this term gave him his first shot in competitive basketball since he left Los Angeles.

The team moved in the best competitive interests. While fans and players will always prevail Khris Middleton, Kuzma raises the band’s ceiling immediately as a younger, more strong and more versatile option.

He has not yet played with Giannis Antetokunmpo, which passes through the All-Star Break with the veal strain, and Milwaukee has been 1-2 since the arrival of Kuzma. When the team regains Baciring RAM, it will be engaging to see how Kuzma settles as the third shooter. He couldn’t be happier that he was here.

Analyst and commentator Bucks Marques Johnson sat down with the Michigan family to discuss trade.

“He is simply impressed,” Kuzma described his response to messages. Really, very excited that I can play and fight for the championship. Play with great players, play for coach Hall of Fame, Bucks fans base is always good. It’s like making your dreams come true. “

While Doc Rivers confirmed the difficulties associated with the integration of a up-to-date player, he was impressed by how Kuzma matches his up-to-date team. Despite the mixed fans’ reactions, seeing it in the uniform of Bucks somehow looks good. In Monday’s defeat 125-111 from Warriors, his second start of Milwaukee, had his best performance after trade, scoring 21 points at 6 of 9 from the 9th field 9-13 on the line.

According to his career standards the least points (15.2), collections (5.9) and assists (2.4) since the Lakers trade. At 42.0/28.0/61.7%of its split shootings is in the case of tiny careers. This season was also hit, because the rib injury kept him aside the whole game in December.

We hope that Milwaukee will revive him, and also provide him with a better look when Giannis and Damian Lillard attract defenders, leaving others open. Last season in Washington, Kuzma reached an average of 22.2 ppg in 46.3% shooting. Although he will not have the same volume as a zloty, it should be more effective than before in 2024–25.

The defensive version of Kuzma is a tool from which Bucks can really operate

As a wizard, he was consistently the first or second option, providing a veteran with leadership. “I liked this chapter of my life, being able to help and develop people,” Johnson told Johnson, “but my competitive spirit was hit and I think that the arrival here juices are really flowing. As soon as it happened, they almost recommended everywhere. Great, super exciting. ”

Words are only words and must prove that outside, but it is a promising self -diagnosis when it comes to “revitalization”.

Although he is not recognized as some dissatisfied defender, Kuzma provides flexibility. While Middleton lacked the size or speed of defense of the power of the attackers or agile guards, 6’9 Kuzma has both of these features. As an initial petite striker, he will most often have a confrontation with the opposite 3, with a task with which he feels very comfortable.

“Definitely. More than good – he said about his level of comfort in this area. “I think that in my career I have always been a switching guy, someone who guards many positions. This is where the hat hang, at my versatility, being able to guard everyone who is complex. “

Especially when the team is missing one or more of his large-giannis, Bobby Portis or Brook Lopez-Haining Kuzma to defend a 4-point, a petite gift. The difficulties caused by the recent absence of Portis in 6 matches are still fresh in Bucks.

In the last match before the break, Kuzma will have the opportunity to operate his last performance when Milwaukee travels to Minnesota on Wednesday evening.
