Once again, the Washington Wizards are struggling to begin their season, falling to 12th place in the Eastern Conference. What’s interesting is the fact that they have three players averaging 20 or more points per game, including Kyle Kuzma, who’s in the midst of the best season of his career.
There’s no doubt that Kuzma has been a valuable part of the rotation, but he’s also set to be a free agent at the end of the season, and there’s no guarantee the Wizards are the ideal long-term fit for the 27-year-old Michigan native.
Other teams around the NBA have taken notice of Kuzma’s career resurgence and view him as a player who can help them improve their playoff seeding this season, with the hopes he can be a long-term fit.
