Michigan-born Kuzma is 28 and plays as a forward for the Washington Wizards in the NBA, per his profile on the league’s website. He was previously a rookie player with the Los Angeles Lakers in 2017, and was with the Brooklyn Nets before that, per Sports Illustrated.

“It’s surreal,” Kuzma told Bleacher Report in 2017. “The Lakers are the premier franchise in all of basketball. It’s the biggest brand in basketball. It’s a really surreal feeling to wake up every day, put on my Lakers gear and see Magic in there and play for Luke Walton.”
