Jake Fisher, the senior NBA correspondent, revealed that Kyle Kuzma could head out to the Sacramento Kings, a move that will see him team up with Draymond Green. Fisher said that the name has garnered quite some ‘momentum’ in the talks about players being directed to the Sacramento Kings.

Kuzma joined the Los Angeles Lakers in 2017 and was a major part of the 2020 championship-winning team alongside LeBron and Anthony Davis. However, he was traded to the Washington Wizards in 2021 for Russell Westbrook. After having a breakout year last season, Kumza declined a $13 million player offer and has since then become a free agent in the hopes of a bigger payday.

If and when Kuzma joins the Kings, he might be joining the ranks with 4x NBA champion Draymond Green. The 4x All-Star started his NBA career back in 2012 and has only played for the Golden State Warriors. However, there are strong rumors that Sacramento would want him to reunite with their head coach Mike Brown, who was with the Warriors for 6 years as an assistant.
