Kyle Kuzma, just like the rest of the NBA, was keeping tabs on the reactions to the surprising Kyrie Irving trade request from the Brooklyn Nets. The talented point guard is looking for a change of air after almost four years in Brooklyn, and many teams are now interested in his services.
The Dallas Mavericks, Phoenix Suns, and of course the Los Angeles Lakers have been mentioned among these teams, but it seems like the Purple and Gold are leading this short and intense race.
As soon as the trade request was made public, a lot of people reacted to it, including LeBron James, who posted a cryptic message on Twitter. Of course, everybody knew this was about Kyrie and started replying to the King.
Kyle Kuzma Is Trying To Get LeBron James In Trouble After Cryptic Tweet By The King
Former teammate Kyle Kuzma was among that group of people, and as soon as he saw the tweet, he called ‘tampering’ on LeBron. This was a light-hearted joke by Kuz, but it’s hilarious when you remember that LeBron is called ‘LeGM’ by a lot of fans as he tends to build his own teams.

Jokes aside, it seems like the Lakers are the frontrunners to get Kyrie before the 2023 trade deadline strikes. The 17-time NBA champions have been looking to make some improvements on the roster and adding Kyrie to their squad will surely boost their chances to compete in the Western Conference.
If they add Kyrie to the team, the Lakers will look really dangerous on paper, but we all know that on paper doesn’t always translate to the court. It happened with Russell Westbrook last season and it could happen with Kyrie this one. Time will tell how this situation plays out, but the Lakers could be in for a treat if they manage to send a good package to Brooklyn before next Thursday.
