Can Kyle Kuzma step into a key role for the Wizards?

One of the biggest pieces of the Westbrook trade was Kuzma. Kuzma has been a role player for the Lakers in recent seasons due to Anthony Davis and LeBron James dominating usage in Los Angeles.

While Kuzma has shown flashes of potential, he has yet to put everything together in his first four seasons in the NBA.

Even with Dinwiddie and Beal leading the way, Kuzma should have more opportunities to prove why he deserves more playing time.

Kuzma is going to need to improve his shot selection and efficiency if he wants to carve out a consistent role in Washington.

Even though most people say the Washington Wizards didn’t get much in return for Westbrook, they would love nothing more than for Kuzma to evolve into a key player for them this season.
