Utah Jazz star Donovan Mitchell acclaims Los Angeles Lakers forward Kyle Kuzma for the improved guard he has appeared in the Team USA preparing camp.
Per Allen Sliwa of ESPN, Mitchell gave Lakers fans something to be amped up for. He called attention to that Kuzma is improving as a protector and has been requiring a cognizant exertion to have an effect protectively.
"Everyone recognizes what he can do in all out attack mode end yet protectively, he's taken it to another level," Mitchell said of Kuzma. "He's talking, conveying, finding different approaches to improve whether it's correspondence, regardless of whether it's venturing in and taking charges, being eager to monitor the best forward on the other group."
Kuzma is one of the top wagers to make the last program of Team USA, which is set to guard their title in the 2019 FIBA World Cup in China. In the USA b-ball intra-squad scrimmage a week ago, Kuzma played only seven minutes yet completed with seven and four bounce back for the senior group.
The 24-year-old forward drew a ton of consideration in his initial two seasons in the association after he was drafted 27th by and large by the Lakers in 2017. Last season, Kuz found the middle value of 18.7 focuses and 5.5 bounce back in 70 games, winding up as the group's second-driving scorer behind LeBron James.
